I have a table that contains a text field and sometimes the text is longer than the width of the column.  
Is there a way to display multiple lines of test within one cell in a Table?  
Thanks.

In the classic table, it’s not easy. You’d need to put a tag before the text and   
 tags where you want breaks, and then size the row height to be the height of your tallest row.

In the power table, the row height will automatically adjust if you’re doing the +   
 trick. In version 7.7.2-rc2 there’s an additional property to allow automatic text wrap without the need for the html tag.

Thanks Kathy,  
I think I’ll just wait for the official release of 7.7.2 then.
