"<" and ">" are converted to "-" and "-" (Maybe due to code page 437 used with VIEW.EXE ??)

Wouldn't it be nice if *everything* could be preserved??? --------------------------------------- First, here's the imaginary FULLY-PRESERVE tag. John asked Jane, "Good morning Jane. What html tag can be used to "fully-preserve" everything within it's boundaries"? (including "" symbols)? Jane replied: "To my knowledge, no such html tag exists". --------------------------------------- Next, the real PRE tag. John asked Jane, "Good morning Jane. What html tag can be used to "fully-preserve" everything within it's boundaries"? (including "" symbols)? Jane replied: "To my knowledge, no such html tag exists". --------------------------------------- And last, the way it needs to be coded so that everything works. John asked Jane, "Good morning Jane. What html tag can be used to "fully-preserve" everything within it's boundaries"? (including "-" and "-" symbols)? Jane replied: "To my knowledge, no such html tag exists ". ---------------------------------------
