Here's another approach to the text overflow calculation:
function extraText f -- removes from fld f, and returns, the htmlText that
overflows size of fld f
repeat with c = 1 to length(fld f)
if the formattedHeight of char 1 to c of fld f > the height of fld f then
put the htmlText of char c to -1 of fld f into myHtml
delete char c to -1 of fld f
return myHtml
end if
end repeat
return empty
end extraText
