DM, you said you might have an intearlinear model that worked? I had another
look to see how I did mine previously, and found that in fact I used tables.
I think I struggled for quite a while to get a model working across browsers
using DIVs, but none of them seemed to wrap properly at the end of the line.
But unfortunately table layouts are slow and therefore it would be better
to have divs.
Would you be able to let me have your samples?
