Hi.
GBK is a co-moderator of the BBoard and doesn't have access to any underlying HTML. That's my job, along with the co-moderator job.
It has been my and a few thousand other BBoard managers that such messages just don't work. There's a myriad of reasons, but the end result is the same. There are newsgroups that post a monthly or bi-weekly FAQ - and you still wouldn't believe the number of questions that are posted that are answered exactly by the FAQ.

If someone (newbies I assume) didn't ask them, they wouldn't be "frequently asked questions". Catch-22

As in My Fair Lady, "Its second nature to me now" , when reading an asked question, whose answer I just dont know or of which I'm am uncertain, I search here and look in what dicts and encys are readily available including those on-line. We [used to] have the saying, "Engage brain before opening mouth", still a good idea! Don
Thanx, Mark, Don
