 WHY?

Hard to tell from the above images (are they the same?) :-?
 
 if i put it in  pre , then it's good. but if it isn't in  pre 
 then the lines ends are random. why dont they end in the same vertical
 line?

pre/pre tag is used in html when you want a block of text:

1/ Preserves the blank spaces between the words and also line breaks

2/ Gets displayed with a fixed font face (the font to be used will depend 
on the user's settings)

 thank you, and sorry for askin html...i just can't figure it out :(

Nothing to regret, but better if you put the [OT] in the subject ;-)

You posted the same link twice, and the .png file has a big black block
over most of it on my system (I think I may have an X-related video
glitch on my box), so I can't see what it's supposed to be.

I got the black box too, on my NON X related Blackberry,

Though phone browsers aren't the greatest and I initially assumed it was phone 
browser...

My first guess is that your code doesn't specify a monospace font, and 
therefore the natural variances in the default variable-space font is 
causing your line-ends to be random.

Same here. It's likely to be the png.

No, you can tell by the arrangement of the black bars that the author
put them there on purpose, in order to cover up sensitive information.
The URL is black, the name of the tab is black, the first line of the
HTML is black, and the content of the tags is black.

Posed this way, with a blacked out image, and the same link given
twice, makes it quite a mystery as to what problem the OP would like
help solving.

My guess is the problem is that in HTML whitespace is almost always
collapsed. Try using...

style=white-space: pre

...in the parent container, whatever that may be!

Just a guess,

Phil
