Hi Russ, yes, but you have to agree that forcing a return in the SOURCE content is really not a wise thing to do - It would be better to break the content into multiple paragraphs or used an XSLT to determine the column width and insert your own breaks in a version of the XML for rendering in Frame. If, at a later date, your templates in Frame change to allow wider columns in your table, then you'd have to go back into the source code and change every occurrence of the c/r in the data - Yeuch! Better to transform the data once, before importing into Frame and then if the col-width changes it is a simple task to change the width in the XSLT - personally, I would make sure the EDD and DTD allows multi-lines in the table cell and then break-up the data to fit the table cell size in an XSLT before importing. Then you don't taint your source code...and it is quite easy to do this is an XSLT...
