HTML question: Hanging paragraphs.

[ronnie gauthier]

I'm sure this could be done with js but i'm not familiar enough with it
to without booking it. I would do a perl hack and count characters or
words then add a blockqoute to each line. If the text changes or
whatever you could use a SSI call to parse the outside file and include
it.
