Nesting format tags

This WebDNA talk-list message is from

1997

It keeps the original formatting. numero = 11638
interpreted = N
texte = This may be a dumb question, but can you nest format tags? I was tryingto create a line with a length of 1400 characters, with formattinginside that, using [format 1400s][format 10s]something[/format][format5s]something[/format]......[/format] where all the format tags insidethe tag that was 1400s added up to 1400, but when I checked the fileWebCat created, it was nowhere near the right length (way too short). Ihave tried it without the [format 1400s], which theorectically should bethe same size, but that doesn't work either (too long). Any ideas?John-- John S.
