What I am waiting for is the ability to edit my message. There are pros and cons to having such abilities. My personal preference would be to have the system allow edits but have a publically-available "edit log", so that authors who said something which would not be useful to readers of the thread could adjust their writings to be more suitable, but anyone who wanted to could see what they'd originally written.

Thx chnsmok for the tip.
BTW, the spell checker works only if you have Word or a similar word processing software on your PC.

Color-coding disappeared from HTML Source Editing in Outlook Express
I have used Outlook Express daily and extensively for years to write mail and web pages in HTML (this [present message is written in OE as well), under W98, W98SE, W2K, WXP, with OE4, 5, 6.
Unfortunately on 3 of the PCs involved in recent years, in the "Source" tab of the New Message being composed:
"OE > Ctrl+N > Format > Rich Text (HTML)", then "View > Source Edit", then click the "Source" tab at bottom of the New Message
the HTML source has lost its color-coding. This loss significantly lessens the efficiency and reliability of the code-editing.
I tried all sorts of "fixes" proposed on various places, for instance:
from which the most frequent advice was to add a key in Registry:
- Go to: RegEdit > HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{identity string}\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0,
- and there, create a "Show Source Edit Color" DWord key, set it to "1"
which didn't work.
On one of those PCs (W2K, Radeon 8500 64 BBA), in 2003 or 2004, I accidently found a workaround: disabling/renabling
ATI Hydravision immediately renabled/disabled the color-coding in OE New Message HTML source, so I disabled Hydravision (and even uninstalled it). But now in 2005 I am unable to redo that workaround on my current main PC (W2KSP4, Gigabyte Radeon 7500 Pro), with last drivers tried being
ATI Catalyst 5.12, then Catalyst 5.12-based Omega 2.6.87 (
Omega >
Radeon >
W2K/XP).
Anyone here can help? TIA,

When I use the spell checker, it corrupts my tagline.
