Add Emphasis With Pull Quotes

The key to text wrapping is to always include the ALIGN attribute inside your opening TABLE tag. Set the value to either left or right to indicate where you want the pull quote placed in relation to the other text. Note: you can also set ALIGN="center" and center the table on the page, but that won't allow text to flow around the table.

<TABLE width="125" height="150" 
           align="right" border="0">
  <TR>
    <TD width="100%" bgcolor="#000080">
    <FONT color = "#FFFFFF" size="4">
    <B>"Catch and hold visitors' interest with 
               pull quotes."</B>
    </FONT>
    </TD>
  </TR>
</TABLE>

Then, place that table inside the rest of your text wherever you want the pull quote. You can use nested tables or merely include it inside a paragraph tag. Experiment some to find the best layout effect.
