| > I believe that tables and lists can logically be children of a | > paragraph. | | David, | Can you site a precedent? I don't believe I've ever seen this. If | the intention is to make the table & paragraph appear side by side, | the sibling relationship is appropriate. The only reason to support | the table-as-child-of-paragraph approach would be to embed the table | into the text flow of the paragraph. I can't think of a meaningful | example of this. --- You've never seen a book or article with a table or list in the middle of a paragraph? It's not really that uncommon. I've certainly seen - tables - figures - lists - code segments and other insertions in the middle of paragraphs. Why not? scott -- scott preece motorola/css urbana design center 1101 e. university, urbana, il 61801 phone: 217-384-8589 fax: 217-384-8550 internet mail: preece@urbana.css.mot.com
