Hi John.

::chuckle:: No the XMP tag isn't some funky MS thing it's HTML... remember
HTML? :P

XMP is officially regarded as obsolete in HTML 4.0, supposedly the PRE tag
does all that is desired. The person who desided this didn't actualy
realise what the XMP tag does. It preformats text, but also doesn't parse
any content, it stands for EXAMPLE, and allows authors to give example
mark-up withour resorting to >mytag<

The W3C will pull the XMP tag from my dead hands, it's a fight to the death
I tell ya!

Cheers
     Guy.

Thanks for the tip, Guy. Only one question: What the heck is an <XMP> tag?
Is this some MS convention for putting IE5 into debug mode or something?
