i distinctly remember Bob Allison (bob...@wwa.com) saying... := Once the art-text is html'ized, it's real hard to work with, unless := you strip the html out of it. The html code throws offs the alignment of := the art-text when it's not being viewed in a web browser. you needn't make a separate html file for the faq... you could always just send it through a perl script to make the translations. (nice and easy: everything into &entities and then parse "<a href" back into "<a href", et cetera. i implement this on a few pages of my own.) but personally, i like the FAQ just the way it is. -- <sigh> my handwriting's pretty bad... sorry about the signature. <a href="http://acs2.bu.edu:3000/"> . . </a>
