Without that conformity it is impossible to be productive on the list. > > I used larger font to point point out my statement from the code. I > also did not realize it appeared that large to you. Right but just as a tip that is really not needed on a technical list. Your words should be able to convey your meaning without the requirement of a cosmetic modification. If it can't it would be better to post to a pastebin or static web page and link a URL. Just FYI most on this list probably never saw your HTML. They, like I said have already turned off HTML email. > > Just out of curiosity, why are you so apposed to HTML in a email? http://www.american.edu/econ/notes/htmlmail.htm http://www.georgedillon.com/web/html_email_is_evil.shtml Sincerely, Joshua D.
