re: Message 21921472 Okay, as you know the "butted up" link is because you didn't leave a space before and after. That burden is on the user just like putting spaces between words. The fact that the link is not underlined is because Mr. Bill has not completed the css style code that will, in part, differentiate links in text. It is underlined on hover as the style currently specifies. The non-compliant html is another issue. The original routine did not consider incomplete tag pairs to be valid tags, in accordance with the standards. I changed it to truncate everything from the input text following a disallowed tag -if- it does not have a corresponding closing tag. However; there is something wrong with the change I made that is causing the routine to throw an error occasionally, but I'll figure that out after a few scotch rocks. The bad html on the <a tag (no closing apostrophe) is a bit more problematic. Will have to think about that one a bit. I'm using a vbscrpt routine to search for pre-defined tags. I'd be willing to bet there is an equivalent (free public) class out there somewhere that utilizes regexp, but I haven't found it yet. The first person to find a free and sufficiently comprehensive HTML stripper that we wind up using will receive an annual subscription to PremiumPlus for either their own account or another member of their choosing. It must be server side vb or c#.
