Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp.
Sorry. It's just that fixed width tables in HTML should be avoided at all
costs. You probably don't know how many pixels to set it to match my fonts to
make things work. Also, MSIE does horrible things to font sizes, but Netscape
does not. Also, even MSIE is maybe 10% off on font sizes between Mac and
Windows...
Also, I think HTML is a good choice, but that the crud that MS Word puts out
and calls HTML is not.
