Hi, I know the subject line is not very expressive of my dilema, but what I'm trying to accomplish is only allowing the cells in my outputted data table that need to be more than one line high...be only in "that" row, not all rows...
I'm using a:

foreach $_(@data) {
print Tr([
td([$name,$email,$subject])]);
}

loop, and I've tried several things to no avail. I know it can be done, because I've seen other types of tabular display in forums and the like that only show the data in cells with more than one line "ONLY" in that particular row.
I have forward and back buttons to take the user to the next pages and so on...and if a page happens to have a cell that is more than one line high, then it produces all cells and rows as that height. I'm trying to eliminate that.

Can anyone help me out?
 
I just had to explicitly define the columns's widths...works fine, now.
