I have been following the thread on The Complete Guide to Formatting Books for the Amazon Kindle by Joshua Tallent. He said that he had come up with a method of formatting poetry.

HarryT commented that he used the width attribute for that purpose. This caught my attention. I suspect that both use the same method.

I have tried using the width attribute and it has never worked for me.

Example:
<p width="-15">... <div width="-15">...

I am obviously doing something wrong but haven't isolated my problem.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Charlie
