I have tried putting the protected blank in the 1st line of each minipage - and it works perfectly for DVI and PDF. Thank you! Alas. I still cannot persuade latex2html to place the minipages alongside each other. I expect that this is a quirk of latex2html. I will place a query on their list. I prefer the minipage solution, and will persist until it works or I am persuaded that it does not. Many thanks for your effort John O'Gorman
