Plus the at "@" in a URI is pretty messy %40 (usually reserved for e-mail). Actually as a hand-coding webpage developer i am a neutral vote. No GUI interface is capable of doing what i need, though site content providers need good CMS's. I do want to be able to cut and paste cleaned code from Writer to TinyMCE for instance without the need for further parsing. Currently i have to: * save as a text file selecting UTF-8 as encoding * close the file * re-open the text file * select and copy the text * paste into tinyMCE * select and format as paragraphs * Find and format headings, emphasised, strong, blockquoted text etc. All this to prevent the pasted content from messing with the site CSS. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
