(Too lazy to get >the html code book out) Does that work? I have no idea how old it is. BLOCKQUOTE is a current tag (It's in HTML4.0 even), but I don't believe it does monospaced or preservation of < > & etc. It's meant to mark up a large quoted division, as opposed to the inline <Q> tag (which does nothing in either IE or Netscape, but is supposed to put quotes around the text). >>BKNambo.html -- and that's just the way it is...
