Thread Name: line breaks: how to do it
Subject: RE: line breaks: how to do it
Yup, Mousie, ya done it. I kinda wish people would just use line breaks ( [br], in angle brackets) and not paragraph marks ( [p], in angle brackets) in most situations because the paragraph marks don't always transfer over when you copy from a browser and paste into a word processor when you want to save lyrics posted here.
Whether we like it or not, some people use and like one browser, and others use others. Here at Mudcat, we need to try to figure out what HTML is not uniformly understood, and avoid it. It took me a long time to figure out my ampersands weren't being understood by the Netscape people and so my HTML advice was being misunderstood.
One thing that Netscape understands and MSIE doesn't is the [blink] command. Maybe that's just as well for the MSIE folks. Blinking text can be really annoying, even if it is fun.
