Sorry if this has been covered already, but I tried Search several times only to be informed that my key words are too common.

I've noticed, and been somewhat frustrated by, my tables being partially blank when I have the tags on. Is this expected, a bug, user error?

Thanks. Actually, I've not used DIVs in Flare before (I have messed about with them briefly in web editors). How do I apply the DIV to the text between <li>s? Do I have to do that in the text editor or is there a more user-friendly way?

I think the easiest way is to do a <div> sub-style, which is ...

I think you can just use a <div> nested in the <li>, which you may have to do in the Text Editor . If not, set up a <div> sub-style and set the indent accordingly, but a plain <div> should do what you're after. You probably know how, but just in case:

Another option is to comment-out styles instead of setting them to zero. Take everything out relating to lists and follow LTinker68's advice by removing the comments of each style systematically. I would start with the <ul> and <ol> styles and leave the <li> related styles for last. If you're ...

I'm looking at some of my code where I have nested bullet lists and I noticed my stylesheet doesn't have margin-left values:
<ul>
<li value="1">Some really awesome text.</li>
<li value="2">The following features have been added:
<ul class="sublist">
<li value="1">Not so awesome text, more like ...

Are you referring to context-sensitive cross-references? I have one of my projects set up so Help opens to the corresponding topic for what ever screen the user is on when they click the Help icon. I had to generate a Header File for the project, then an Alias File (which took all of five minutes ...
