In the past I have used the "font class" with my CSS for text and in my "example 1" the text "box" ends at the end of the actual text. [explanation and code snipped...] Hi Jonathan, I don't think you need either the "font" or the "b" elements there. Just move the styling class from the "font" tag to the "td". You already have a "font-weight: bold;" declared, so the "b" tag is redundant. Example: <td valign="top" class="tdpd V11bl ">Example ****** 1</td> Cordially, David -- I did try that ( <td valign="top" class="tdpd V11bl ">Example ****** 1</td> ) and the text box then funs the full width of the table cell. I know what you are saying about the "b". I have found that in some cases the "b" tag looks different than the "font-weight: bold;" in CSS. This was a while back so with all the new browsers I have not taken the time to see if that is still the case. Do you think the "float" property that I used to make the text box end at the end of the text is valid. It works in all the browser and platforms i tested it on. Know that I really appreciate your advice.
