 Guy,

>From my understanding of PRE and your explanation of XMP, I still think they
do the same thing. Although its ugly, I'm currently using PRE for element
types that use xml:space="preserve". As far as I can tell, IE5 does not
support this feature on its own. I wish there were a way to mimick the DSSSL
asis-wrap so that I would not have to preformat all the lines.

Richard.
