Many thanks to all of you you helped with my problems with the <PRE> tag.

Just thought I'd let you know that I discovered a "solution" (?) by
accident yesterday.  My generated HTML was getting messed up, with the
result that while I had a <PRE> tag in each table row I did not have an
</PRE>.  For some reason when the browser defaults the end of the <PRE>
group when it ends the row, it does not insert the CR that caused my
problems!!  Don't know how universal this is but it works in IE5.5 and
Netscape 4.73.

If you try the code below, I'd be grateful if you'd let me know if it
causes problems with any browsers.

<html><body><table border=1>
<tr><td><pre>No end tag on this line</td></tr>
<tr><td><pre>or this one</td></tr>
<tr><td><pre>But this one has one</pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre>So does this </pre></td></tr>
<tr><td><pre>And here it is gone again</td></tr>
</table></body></html>
