Todd, Thanks for adding the preview function. Can we also have a post button for when we don't want to preview? The deal is, when I'm including a link I want to preview so I can test the links.

A relative of mine received his issue of the May-June 2000 Mania Magazine late last month and it did include the disclaimer. The disclaimer was featured on the last page under his address.

For example, having news.lugnet.com distinct from www.lugnet.com now makes it much (...) (26 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
