Seriously, at this stage in HTML's development adding new entities is a messy proposition. Adding some type of general entity or element that takes into account a document's language and region and formats the currency, thousanth markers and decimals would be a nice idea... if you could travel back in time to amend the original HTML draft. It's a bit late to add something like that as well. Rob
