I tried a tweak to avoid putting out newlines right after <br> for pre-formatted mode. It had no real effect. I also tried adding a <b></b> here and there. My current theory is that Tidy is including the element names in it's character count. This makes sense for pretty printing, but not for pre-formatted elements. take it easy, Charlie
