Are others seeing this and is it a bug?
since <p></p> is in fact the HTML equivalent to "empty/no text" I would not

Thanks Klaus, I thought I should check on that before putting in a bug report.
It seemed too obvious to have been missed.
It does create an odd condition by Livecode standards however that you can set
the htmlText to empty, then immediately test if the htmlText is empty and it
returns false. I suspect that could confuse some people.
Out of curiosity, do you know how "something" ( <p></p> ) came to be regarded
as equivalent to empty?
Well, of course that's logically fairly crappy.
The way to test if an htmlField is empty is surely something like this:
if the htmlText of fld "f1" is not "<p></p>" then
put "Yippee-Do, 'tis empty my friend!"
end if
