If you are reading the raw HTML for whatever reason, the <FONT COLOR=RED> is a whole load more readable than <TEXT = "#FF0000"> - at least you can tell it is red, rather than green or blue without thinking too hard. I would stick to the readable version, myself.

Thanks, I have a response to Mr 'Clever Dicky' Greg!

You're closing a <TEXT> tag with a </FONT> tag? :(

Heh - you editted that, you sneaky guy - I saw <FONT=MAROON> in Chrome, went to reply "Where's the TEXT element" and saw a TEXT tag on the reply page. Open the page in FireFox - see a TEXT tag - my reaction "What magic's the Dalek pulled to get Chrome and FF to display different text?" Of course, I refresh the Chrome page and see the TEXT tag - it was just a race condition all along. No wonder concurrency's difficult.

Maybe it's time to switch to XHTML+CSS, i.e. real men's web languages? :-D

You certainly do - you should be using CSS and not relying on the FONT tag or the TEXT tag.

Just slip into a pair o' pink tight pants and comb your hair into retro style, wear a 70s jacket and a hollywood style very large sun shades (should cover half the face, fake gem stones on the sides will fetch bonus points). Then, you'd just look cool. :cool: Did I mention about the rubber gum boots?
