I found another suggestion on this page: http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?cid=529B0 (written by John Gallant and Holly Bergevin) which talks about using absolute positioning. I've set up an example here: http://www.sourceworks.co.uk/communityMxExample This is great, apart from how the text disappears off the top of the page when I manually increase its size. This (I guess) is due to the containing box not expanding to enclose its contents (which in turn is because the contents use absolute positioning). Just in case my first post didn't clearly explain what I'm after, here's an ascii-art picture (it should make sense in a monospace font): \ / \/ \/ -------------------- That's just two different-sized v's sitting on opposite ends of a line.
