John,

First off sorry for the bum advice, I'm glad Sergey is paying attention. *s*

When you reply to the message you can see the HTML PRE tag that's used to tell the browser to use a fixed space font and display all the spaces. You put a < pre> (without the space) at the front of the code block and < /pre> at the end of it. Michel has code in the UT rendering engine that adds the coloring of the code automagically.

>thanks for the input. I used the space only becuase it was ignored by the program that read the file. It worked but with files over 12MB, removing the spaces makes a 10% or better difference when sending them over the "wire".
