Yes Vinod,
>I understand what you're saying. But already we have a good interface here. West-wind interface is the other which I really like. Michel doesn't let many tags to be used but at least we could do it ourselves with a small set :) Before you could use font tag as I remember and IMHO if Michel doesn't want it to be used there is something he knows (and he sure knows web interface much much much more than me).

yes, I can understand that...

Infact i don't know much abt. these tags i.e. why wrote the whole thing explaining it.. (This same thing i'm using in my emails while i'm giving reply)

For UT, Currently i'm using the extra space between lines...

Anyway let him see this himself & decide...
