Thanks John L. Your code did the trick, and the page looks right now.

Sorry to post this as a new thread, but SeaMonkey is not allowing me to
send it as a reply for some stupid reason.

We no it didn't this is still the same thread. BTW this reply was via
SeaMonkey. What you did you was reply unquoted from your original
posting. If you want to reply to John post be sure your have it
highlighted in the upper message thread pane when you click the reply

No, he didn't. He started a new thread, manually filling out the Subject
header, and when doing so didn't capitalize the first letter of "Re", as
his news client would have had he replied. Had his post been a reply
without quoting, it also would have had a Refernces header.

Hmm your right the reference links to bot connect up, but strangely
SeaMonkey arrange the message as if it was part of the same thread.

That's because it's only using the Subject header to thread, not the
References header, as it should. So, for example, it will assume
(incorrectly) that every post with, for instance, the Subject header

help

is part of the same thread. This is why References headers are superior
for threading -- they distinguish *real* threads. The moz news clients
aren't real sharp; look at how brain-dead their newsgroups filtering is.

I concede your are right, even with my Mnenhy & MessageIDFinder
extensions that improve it, it is just not as good as a dedicated
newsreader. I have a copy of Gravity. I just like the convenience of the
all in one rather than run a separate apps. That is why I prefer
SeaMonkey over the Firefox-Thunderbird combo

As for filtering, which is probably the worst fault of Thunderbird,
Gravity it just about a tie with it. You can filter on three specific
headers, but beyond that, you can only filter on "headers", and rules
you set up in that manner are applied against *all headers of which
Gravity is aware*; i.e., you can't specify *which* headers to apply a
rule to, which is a big capability gap.

That may be best for you. As for me, I recognize that while a Swiss
army knife may be okay for the occasional small job, it's not going to
be able to do as well with most of them as the stand-alone purpose-built
tools will.

Well other than Gravity, what else you you recommend. Now all my Linux
boxes are servers, I am testing out a Ubuntu desktop but since my
experience has been Mandrake|Redhat flavor the Debian taken a little
time to get use to. I think I really prefer KDE over Gnome. I'm still
futzing with the new XP box to get it more like my W2k!

Well I usually have several apps open at the same time. True
multitasking so SM is a way to reduce 3 to 1...

Readers are quite personal. Personally, my Top 2 for Linux are slrn
and Pan. I use both. You may have noticed that filtering is important
to me, so I'll note that not only are they very versitile for that, they
share a Score file, here, because neither of them use proprietary
scoring like Gravity and some other readers. As for WMs, I prefer KDE
also, and use it on both my SUSE and Mandrake boxen.

I use KDE's multiple desktops, with eight set up. I have enough RAM. I
don't need to worry about how many apps I'm running. Right now I'm
running Kmail, slrn, five instances of vim, the Gimp, Quanta Plus
(HTML/CSS editor and site management), two rxvt consoles, two instances
of Konqueror, and freecell. Normally I'd have a couple of browsers
open, as well (Firefox and Konqueror). These are running on the
appropriate desktops, which are: Online, Graphics, Editing, Website
Maintenance, Office, File Management, CLI and Misc.
