Confused about quoting in a reply template
 
I am very puzzled over constructing a reply template in html.

In its simplest form it is just a 2 x 2 table and in the top left I put

Dear %CURSOR

%qinclude('sig'

%OFROMNAME wrote:-
%TEXT


any other random text can be put in the other cells for the sake of the example.

When I reply using this template the table is blown apart with the other 3 cells being placed below the quoted text (same effect with %quote). The width of the cells makes no difference. If I remove %Text then it is ok and I can manually place the text in the same cell and it will wrap correctly.

What is it in %Text that causes it to explode the table.

Would appreciate some help as this is driving me mad.

(using latest version and XP sp3)

Thanks

David
 
I don't use HTML templates myself, so I can't test it, but try %Wrapped(%Text)%- in stead of %Text

Thanks for the suggestion but unfortunately it does not change anything.

Don't know if this problem is purely down to wrap length or it is putting in some sort of return element, but the nett result is that it destroys the table by keeping the top left cell and then putting in text from the other 3 cells below the quoted text. That bears no relationship to the original layout. The other 3 cells no longer exist as elements.  
Don't know if this is by design or bug in the software.

Any thoughts anyone?

Thanks

David
