Hi!
I know I have done this some time before, and I think it was a very easy problem to slove aswell, but at this point I have forgotten how to do this..

The problem/idea is to make a table that you can type in any text you want, but once it reaches the tables width its supposed to jump down and start a new "line"...to put it more in a "codey way:p" once you have typed letters so you have filled the table of the width 200px, then make a <br> and start the same procedure again...

Any simple and good ifea of how to make this work?..I know I have done it before as I said, with just normal HTML...and it were just like one line or so that I had to add.....so it might just be me being noobish....

Yes, -'non-breaking text' does some weird things to browsers... IE incorrectly expands the container, while Firefox lets the content extend beyond the bounding-box..

You should have a "junk folder" on your desktop or "mydocuments" folder, with little snippettes that you save for web-building use. One of my favorites is "lorem ipsum dolar", -the 'fake Latin text' for populating testing boxes to see how 'real text' will look, when the content is provided...

Lorem ipsum dolar:
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
Suspendisse egestas ultricies pede. Phasellus suscipit blandit risus.
Praesent nonummy. In erat. Duis nibh pede, accumsan eu, pulvinar et,
volutpat vel, elit. Curabitur nec dui sed nunc congue tempus. Nulla ac
dui ac libero fringilla nonummy. Maecenas ullamcorper sodales risus.
Vivamus pretium dolor. Proin eu turpis. Phasellus ut mauris non nulla
mattis luctus. Nunc porttitor dapibus sapien. In malesuada fermentum
metus. Nulla egestas, tellus a vestibulum pharetra, nunc purus auctor
lacus, ut semper purus ipsum eu velit. Praesent dui. Nulla accumsan
turpis at erat.</p>

<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
Morbi lacus felis, euismod at, pulvinar sit amet, dapibus eu, eros.
Etiam tellus. Nam vestibulum porttitor urna. Phasellus aliquet pretium
quam. Proin pharetra, wisi nec tristique accumsan, magna sapien pulvinar
purus, vel hendrerit ipsum tellus at ante.</p>

Not entirely sure what this means. Caution using some 'online-provided' lorem ipsum... could be not what you think it says...

I think this is part of some speech about '...no man should seek pain for pain's sake...' or some such diatribe..
