‘For you and me, state is supplier of poison (6)’

It seems to me the definition is ‘source of poison’ rather than just ‘poison’, with the wordplay as described in the blog.

As you say, OURARI is the plant that curare comes from

And (from memory) the clue for OURARI didn’t seem quite right, slightly confusing the drug curare with the plant it comes from.

Thanks for the feedback.

I’ve just tried it in a third form with an undefined column width in the final column but found that the 12″ screen didn’t like it at all. I’ve reverted to the second settings that you say you can almost read with some residual wrapping problems. I’ll go and do some research on self-adjusting tables in HTML. Perhaps the fault is that I am defining a total table width equal to the sum of the 5 column widths.

I’m not getting a wrapping problem on my 12″ screen with the second settings. It’s a ragged edge which looks odd if there is a long word at the beginning of the next line, but it manages to avoid splitting any words when it wraps Can you give me an example of the problem you have please? What size screen are you using? I’ve looked at it on my daughter’s 15″ screen and that looks OK.

Press your refresh button now and all should be well.

I tested it on a 21″ screen and assumed naively that it wrapped round on everything else. I must admit I had to adjust column widths to get it to fit onto the big screen and didn’t think it through to the potential problems on smaller screens.

I have reformatted it and tested it on a 12″ screen, so I hope it should be readable now on all but PDAs and mobile phones.

I will test future blogs on the 12″ screen before publishing,

Interesting though that the text at the top wraps round on all screens witholut any problems – it must be the fact the bottom section is formally declared as a table. Isn’t HTML fun!.
