This diagram illustrates the normal flow of text between parent and sibling boxes. A document window is shown, with 8 lines (numbered 1 to 8), each 24px high. Four lines of text are displayed, occupying line 1 through 4. In the following PRE element, each 24 pixel line is simulated by two lines, the second beginning with the appropriate number. The lines, as they appear in the image, contain: 1 Beginning of body contents. ... 3 End of outer contents. End of body 4 contents. ...
