I know. Just teasing. But I did look at the original code quite closely, before I decided it was of the kind that merited what you describe as a blanket response. I came to that conclusion partly because the classic failure to deal with <img ...alt=">"> - that you mention - reveals a lack of acquaintance with the debate. For the record, I think gmpassos' code is rather good, as that sort of solution goes; certainly better than anything I managed before it was forcefully put to me that better mechanisms existed already. I should probably have said that, but I didn't really feel entitled to pass judgement on the quality, just the approach.

btw, I don't know if you've read the discussion i linked to in the first post. It will put this one in useful context.
