HTML issue

[xavier.bury at clearstream.com]

Hi Eric

I dont see what's wrong... 

Though you dont need to change the <font and the </Font> tags, you seem to 
handle the rest
gracefully.

Though, i dont see what you want to change, this seems ok looking...

>    replace pFind with numToChar(3) && numToChar(27) & quote \
>       & the uPatternColor of this stack & quote & ">" & pFind \
>       & "</font>" in tText

what is pfind? A collection of numtochar(3)&numtochar(8), etc... that is 
going to be 
simplified with:
>                   numToChar(3) && numToChar(27) & quote \
>       & the uPatternColor of this stack & quote & ">" & pFind \
>       & "</font>"
?

what seems wrong in my confused mind is

you put the text into tText - ok
replace the tags - OK

 replace pFind with numToChar(3) && numToChar(27) & quote \
>       & the uPatternColor of this stack & quote & ">" & pFind \
>       & "</font>" in tText

and this doesn't seem ok. If you replace pfind (assume no tags in that
first pfind string (since you put them after in the replace string), 
then you're going to have <tags><tags>pfind<tags>

or did i read this wrong?

cheers
Xavier
