&nbsp - Seems to do it... I had never used the <pre> tag.  Another useful 
addition (which you will NOT find in ANY html book!) is the title= addition 
to the <a> tag.  When moused over (in 
Mac/Winders/Netscape/InternetExploder) it will display what the title to 
what the Href is doing.  So you can have "Add to the Shopping cart" pop 
up... another weirdness everyone needs to know about is the <option> tag. 
 Having nothing other then <option> or <option selected> is OK and accepted 
in ALL browsers as well as Web TV!!!  It returns the info in-between the 
<option>FL</option> tag (just as an example...)

Sorry I couldn't help with the other problem!

 >> The only exception is data within the <PRE> tag.

Yup - that's why I'm using them - seems really stupid though that a tag
like <CODE> which is designed for the sole purpose of showing code samples
can't be used for that purpose!

So is replacing all my blanks with &nbsp the only option?  Or is there some
way to control the effect of the PRE tag to stop it injecting all this
extra space?
