    Inserting a line break

    I am using a javascript to display a slide show of images.

    Each image is called with this in the body:-

    <select name="slide" onchange="chang e();">
    <optionvalue="p ictures/picture01.jpg">
    Text under the picture</option>
    <optionvalue="p ictures/picture02.jpg">
    Text under the picture</option>
    </select>


    When I have a lot of text under the picture I want to spread it over
    two lines but if I insert <brit is ignored

    Is there any other way to force a line break within the <option...?

      '<optionvalue= ' ?????? Do you mean '<option value=' ?

          Ooopppps - yes <option value=

          I copied and pasted from the source code in the web site which has the
          space so I don't know where it vanished to :-(

              No.

              BTW, this is an HTML question, not javascript, so try:

              news:comp.infos ystems.www.authoring.html

              or just read:
