The description was for how >to present ascii art in html *on a web page*, i.e. the html part was the >subject of the discussion, No, I undertand that. I am happy with (a) some discussion of how to present html, or (b) a picture which happens to start with <HTML><BODY><PRE><FONT COLOUR="FF0000">.

I am certainly not taking a dogmatic position against all html. |~/ |~/ ~~|;'^';-._.-;'^';-._.-;'^';-._.-;'^';-._.-;||';-._.-;'^';||_.-;'^'0-|~~ P | Woof Woof, Glug Glug ||____________|| 0 | P O | Who Drowned the Judge's Dog? | . . . . . . .
