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.

     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?
.

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.   "AJ.com" has a great
kid-friendly search engine.
