You're welcome.
I go back to the archives every day now, mostly to make sure that my
posts don't screw up like they have in the past. If I maintain a half-
way decent looking set of posts I might get a bit more den-motherish
about the whole thing. Till then I'll note that I managed to get HTML
scramble by pasting the section title that I left in the body of the
text* into the Apple e-mail window, then copy and paste into the title
window and voila:
a total textual cluster-fuck.
Anyway, I've figured out that I just have to type the name of
whatever I'm up to in the title window and forget about cut & paste
for that particular window. Oy!
*Written and edited in 'Pages'---it retains tab in the Apple e-mail
window and the posting and so far hasn't had any other weird artifacts
as long as I press that 'make plain text' button under 'format'.
