Adam Fenn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: : :<xmp>? stands for "example"... There's probably a better way though... That tag is way deprecated in the standards, and is handled inconsistently in some browsers, although it still works in the versions of IE and Netscape that I have here. I wouldn't use it on a Real Site(tm), though - use character entities, like you're supposed to. Trying to keep up support for crap tags like this is partly why modern browsers are so nasily bloated and buggy. If it's just for a small one-off personal thing, though, go ahead and play in your dirty little inflatable wading pool with your blink tags and center tags and your unclosed paragraph tags. Goddamn degenerates. Jay: : end your document name with ".txt" ...was my original advice, but the little pigfucker beat me to it. DVS ps. I am officially sad about the reply-to setting. _______________________________________________ Bits mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.sugoi.org/mailman/listinfo/bits
