Laugh. That’s great. Knowing MS this is no big surprise of course, just kind of odd. I would not have noticed it though without you hinting at it.

Then again, after using FrontPage (ew) a couple times, it wouldn’t surprise me if it let that go through without warning the user.

caprinus | 11 02 2004

the last paragraph baby… starts with a “< / p >” instead of a “< p >“. The marketing monkeys messed up the most basic principle of html, good for them! It’s like something out of dilbert. hee hee.

kayt_arminta | 11 02 2004

oooooooooooooooh

see, i couldn’t even see it it was < p > or if it was < /p >… mine looked like the last half of each letter was wiped away with the cloth….. TODAY i can see all parts of all letters. weird.
