ERT is extremely valuable in itself. That said, let me suggest a very simple heuristic: Heading text shall be offered as substitutes for BLINKing text if that text starts a new line; i.e. if it immediately follows P, /P, BR, TH, TD, or /Hx. (In the future, this heuristic may be extended to include CSS positioning and statistical Heuristics.) ------- Leonard R.
