John, Perhaps you can explain something here to clear the air. You sent a message saying: >>The facts are that smiley faces are text characters. :-)<< When the message got to me, what I had on screen at the end of the line was a graphic, pure and simple. A bright yellow emoticon graphic, not ascii text characters. If this is not from HTML, then how does it get converted from ascii to a graphic presentation. Just curious, wanting to learn.
