[Formating of pasted text.]

I think I have figured out why most of the cut and pasted texts on SI look ugly.
If you cut and paste inside Netscape Navigator there will be a line break at the end of every original line. The SI server interprets that line break as the end of a paragraph. This leads to the typical posting appearance of

dfj aklsd”fj df”j l”sdkaf kl”djf a”lfdkj
fkjds dkf
fkladjs dlfkja sdjkl”f aslfjk ”fjkla f jkl
dfk lfjks

or

fsdjkajfj kl”ja fjk”lad

fjkl”as l”jk kl”sfdj klja

kfdasj lak”f kl”dsf lkdj

If you paste it into Winword and do a autoformat then the line breaks will be removed and the text will be properly formated after cutting and pasting into the SI editor.

I checked it on techstocks.com and techstocks.com
