How can having "RENDEZ" disappear and "VOUS" dropping down into content
fulfill the requirement "line up with the body that I have designed

how do you know your visitor has allot that much space. Hint: monitor
resolution != browser viewport.

Sorry to keep chirping in here (without helping*), but that is
what I was wondering too. I recall words dropping down at text
size up clicks in all browsers as well...

*I did have an idea and it was based on an assumption of what the
OP wanted but gave up when he seemed so pleased with what Ben was
offering. I assumed I was not understanding the case. It seemed
to me OP wanted what simply could not be achieved with html text
and I was going to suggest some css dimensioned image of text...
But the mystery continues.

Of course I would be interested in your ideas. I was pleased with
Ben's response because he provided an answer that met my
specification.


Fair enough, but that is why I was puzzled. It seemed I did not
understand your specification.


I did not respond to your previous post in this thread because I
assumed you were simply chiding me for accepting a solution that might
fail and you knew that there was an implied "the text must not break
out of the blue area". I have accepted the fact that _I_ cannot design
an application that will work well on a wrist watch computer and a
plasma TV screen without extensive additional code that "knows" the
size of the viewport. If you have a solution to the problem I posed
that works over a wider range of viewports I would be grateful if you
would post it.

David, your text was jumping out of its box on my 20" monitor, I
rarely use the whole area for a browser and I often read with
text size bigger than you seem more accustomed to. I was not
really chiding you, I was thinking up theories about what it was
quite that you were wanting. I was not in any way critical of
Ben's proposals.

Lets see if you like the latest proposed solution by someone who
studiously avoids my name... someone who seems to have a rather
nice idea. If this does not please you, say so and I will have a
go... <g>
