In View Source? There is no difference in what appears on the browser between: ------------------------------------ <B>Some text<BR> that breaks</B> may also break HTML formatting. ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ <B>Some text <BR>that breaks</B> may also break HTML formatting. ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ <B>Some text<BR> that breaks</B> may also break HTML formatting. ------------------------------------ or even: ------------------------------------ <B> Some text <BR> that breaks </B> may also break HTML formatting. ------------------------------------ Web browsers take great liberties in formatting text recieved from a server.
