This is interesting. I have been putting "$>" signs myself when I put code on a webpage, but use a box and fixed type font. I presume you have done something like this but are leaving the detials out in the above example. For instance, shouldnt' there be a "$" sign on every line? ->HS -- Please remove the underscores ( the '_' symbols) from my email address to obtain the correct one. Apologies, but the fudging is to remove spam. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
