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 trying to create a line with a length of 1400 characters, with formatting inside that, using [format 1400s][format 10s]something[/format][format 5s]something[/format]......[/format] where all the format tags inside the tag that was 1400s added up to 1400, but when I checked the file WebCat created, it was nowhere near the right length (way too short). I have tried it without the [format 1400s], which theorectically should be the same size, but that doesn't work either (too long). Any ideas?John -- John S.
