       FrontPage does it again ?

   A friend of mine says FrontPage is perfectly good, but it needs to be
used correctly. I still prefer a text editor.     :)

  Thanks for that Glenn.    :)   A useful tip to remember, and well
worth including in a "tips" page for the Arachne package.  After all,
this one WASN'T altogether Arachne's fault.

  But, why 541 characters ?   Any particular reason for not choosing any
other number, such as (taken at random) 255 characters ?

  Just curious.   :)

Regards,
        Ron
