Only the layout process can determine how many lines a block will span. You can calculate how many lines will fit on a page by working out the line height or setting the line height (note the if the line height is set it uses a slightly different number, its a bug) and the spacing between blocks. You are probably better of rendering to xml then reading that. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
