At present, Amaya renders text inside <a name> light green, and if there is no text, it seems to reserve a little space. For a WYSIWYG program, this is wrong. It makes WYS noticeably different from WYG, since other browsers don't reserve any space at all for just <a name="asdf"></a>. For a good example, look at http://www.troll.no/qt/forever-forever-cpp.html with amaya and either netscape, mosaic, arena or whatever: Amaya breaks the <pre> indentation. I think it would be better if Amaya were to use a single-pixel vertical line to render an <a name> containing no text. This naturally suggests that it should use a single-pixel rectangle around <a name> tags containing text, and I think that's better. People can create green text in HTML content (*sigh*) but they can't put rectangles around their text, so there's less chance of confusion. I am not on this list, so please Cc any replies to me. --ArntReceived on Saturday, 24 August 1996 19:26:39 UTC
