How would you fill a table cell with two *lines* of text ?

Put another way, how would you get two short paragraphs inside one table cell?

Thanx in advance

Hello,

You need to add a CreateText object and add it into the table; please check intermediate/Table.php example included on phpdocx pro.

To do a break in a paragraph use an array of strings.

Could use some help with this line break in a table cell. When you mention an array of strings, I insert an array of strings in the addElement. The array for this is:

array (
0 =>
array (
'font' => 'Courier',
'sz' => '8',
'text' =>
array (
0 => '1.While executing ASR failover high availability test',
1 => '2.On phone in Test Cluster 1 place call to phone on Test Cluster 2',
2 => '3.Verify leave/retrieval of Voice Mail',
3 => '4.On phone in Test Cluster 3 place call to phone on Test Cluster 1',
4 => '5.Verify leave/retrieval of Voice Mail',
5 => '6.On PSTN cluster place call to phone in Test Cluster 1',
6 => '7.Verify leave/retrieval of Voice Mail',
),
),
)


Then I add it to the table array:

$table[]=array($docx->addElement('addText', $headerStyle),$docx->addElement('addText',$courierParagraph));

That returns a blank entry in the table. If I replace the 'text' with just a string it works. So I know that is working. But the array of strings doesn't seem to work. I am using the PRO version.

Thanks!
