Thank you very much for the advice. I checked it out, and it worked. That's good. Being able to change setting on a per blog basis is exactly what at least I, and I suspect most other bloggers as well, want! Also - I was impressed by the speed of your response! :) Hi Joe!

When using XHTML it is actually safer to use the numeric codes, and they are supposed to be semantically identical to the named equivalents. Of course, I understand that that's not much help to you if the programs you use don't know how to deal with them!
