Doing this will make the ASCII viewable as a regular >ASCII picture. Most browsers need you to convert all the ">"s and "<"s and "&"s to escape-codes, too: ">" -> > [greater than] "<" -> < [less than] "&" -> & [ampersand] And because anchor-tags (<A HREF="">) in PRE regions are recognized, you can make different regions of the ascii-image into hyperlinks. See: <URL:http://www.mcs.net/~jorn/html/finder/finder.html> for some clickable/live ascii maps. Also, if you leave blank lines at the beginning and end of a PRE region, they'll provide extra spacing-- some browsers don't automatically skip a line before and after PRE, so they'll look squashed if you don't do it yourself. j
