Hello All, I know HTML is like a red rag to a bull as far as some TB users are concerned, but nevertheless it does have its uses and it *is* used in the commercial world. Read on:
An elderly neighbour of mine received an e-mail from an airline giving details of her flight details etc. and she needed to print it in order to book in for her flight. Her computer could not deal with it and I agreed that she should send the message to me to try. It turned out it was an HTML message. TB displayed the message perfectly but made a mess of the printing! The RH ends of the lines were cut off, it did not print the colour of the text (not serious!) and did not print some lines at all (white on green background). I tried opening the attachment in an external application but got an AV. I then saved the file and opened it from Opera which displayed and printed it perfectly. Out of curiosity I then tried opening it in MS Word but the *display* had errors, some of which disappeared in the printing! Obviously HTML is thus not the easiest of languages to deal with, but I urge our developers to press on with its development in TB, if they want TB to get maximum penetration into the world of commerce. -- Best regards, Roger :flag-southafrica: The Bat! v4.0.20.2 POP3 with AntiSpamSniper 2.8.1.1, on Windows XP, version 5 1, build 2600 and Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 4.0.20.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
