Thanks to all who answered; I can now get the results I was looking for. As
Brian pointed out, the key was
a) use the <p> tag
b) don't try to use the htmlText property in this case.

<pre>
I think this is the part that you missed, albeit maybe a bit obscure:
you _must_ enclose your text in "<p>" and "</p>" in order for it to be
interpreted as html.
So you're doing everything right in the first place, you just need to
enclose your message in those tags.
Try:
answer "<p><b>This is the answer!</b></p>"
</pre>
HTH,
Brian
