OK - this is almost looking how I want it to after playing around with tables and I've upgraded to 0.95 as well.
However, I'm still havign one problem with inserting whitespace into the RTF - specifically, line breaks. I have empty table cells that need to be a certian height, but they are displayed in the RTF reduced down to one line high. Does anyone know how I can resolve/workaround this?
