Since there's HTML, I can do that, but probably won't, but I would use \\ua for umlauted a. At some point we just seem to assume Scott can throw in any old parser effortlessly (hey maybe he can?). -drl

Yeah, good ideas are nice. But it is meaningless without actual work. Which you have done. OTOH I do wish that I had thought of the approach back when Jay O'Connor asked how to solve the exact same problem on EZBoard. If I had then the EZCodes would have worked much better.
