[jawsscripts] Re: How might I code up a table to appear in virtual viewer?

hmm, yep, problem I worried about seems to have surfaced already. it's
complaining of a missing closing quote, and stopping on the ODoc.write line,
so presumably it's not happy with a line break here after my first initial
lines, looking like:
ODoc.Write ("<table> [LineBreak]
<tr> [LineBreak]
,td>FirstColumnHeader</td>[LineBreak]
etc")


any ideas as to how I might get around this lineBreak issue here in
construction of my html code?
