I didn't try your program, but I did look at your site. I think you have
misunderstood something about html. Your second picture breaks badly in
Netscape. My suggestion: (on both pictures) Replace every   with an
ordinairy space (the kind you generate by pushing the space bar on your
keyboard), remove all <br> tags, surround the ascii art with <PRE> and
</PRE>. That way you will get cleaner html source code and a smaller
file size (which loads faster).
