Bryan-- it's ASCII not ANSII -- different things! And the problem lies with the viewer's browser-- they are viewing in a proportional font. Perhaps if you use the preformat tags <PRE> on your webpages, there will be less of a problem. -joan -- == == "we are each of us angels with but one wing, <^\()/\()/^> and can only fly by embracing each other" \/ \/ \/ -Luciano Decrescenzo / \/ \ joan stark <spu...@juno.com> jgs `""``""` <http://www.ascii-art.com>

There may be another problem, he may actually be talking about ANSI, so if he's posting the ANSI file on the page like an ASCII, no one will ever see the actual picture. Bryan, is it ANSI or ASCII? . http://members.aol.com/lester5374/index.htm - Ansi home page FTP://members.aol.com/lester5374/ansi - To download the ANSI format

You could visit a couple ANSI websites... and/or try the following: copy/paste your question directly into the question box at the following URL: http://www.askjeeves.com I'm sure that you will find plenty of information.
