The <PLAINTEXT> HTML tag: Good for ASCIIArt?

I`ve been experimenting with ways to display the asciis on my websites, and I think the <PLAINTEXT>
tag works really well, It means you can have an HTML with the equivilant of a text file at the end,
no markup and no &lt; and &gt; required.

I was wondering if there are any browsers where this doesn`t work?

I`ve attached an example, but outlook express and whatnot may interpret it as the message which
could be quite annoying (I`ve havd it happen to me before when I was emailed an HTML file - MSIE3
mail thought the HTML file was a rich email message! :)

Can you let me know how well this works in Lynx especially, since this was the browser that has
most problems with the asciis in my gallery right now (which, incidentally, I will update soon
I promise!)
