This is a known problem in NS. Noone is quite sure under what circumstances this will occur, but there is a work-around: When you write your text to the layer, wrap it in a table that is the size of the layer. You don't need to set a height (You may see the same problem if you do) But placing your text in a table that is the same width as the layer will cause it to look normal..
:-) Example: Note: to make the text look as it should I use border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 on the table var myLayer = DynAPI.document.addChild(new DynLayer('myLayer',10,10,100,150)); myLayer.setHTML('<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=' + myLayer.getWidth() +'><td><tr>' + "Some text" + '</td></tr></table>'); If you don't want to write out the table tag each tim, you can use a function: function wrapInTable(iWidth,strContent){ return '<table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=' + iWidth +'><td><tr>' + strContent + '</td></tr></table>'; }; var myLayer = DynAPI.document.addChild(new DynLayer('myLayer',10,10,100,150)); myLayer.setHTML(wrapInTable(myLayer.getWidth(),'some text')); ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stefan Keller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, February 25, 2002 9:31 AM Subject: [Dynapi-Help] NS 4.x - strange behaviour > Hi, > > im using DynApi 2.5.7 to develop some DHTML-Online-Games. > > When i set HTML to some DynLayers NS 4.x makes a break > after each word!!!
