OK, what code did you use?

( Got your secret Vast Right Wing Conspirator decoder ring on? )

I simply highlighted and copied the text and graphic to an Outlook Express "new message" email.
( You must have "view source" enabled in the email- poke "view" in the upper area and scroll down the resulting menu to enable it )

Then poke "source" in the email's bottom tabs and copy the relevant html.

I did this because I had the stuff handy in an email- that's the quick & dirty way to copy graphics, links, and text and translate it into HTML. I did not try going to the site and using the "view source" of the browser, which usually works as well.

( Hattip: the late, great JudyB1938 turned me on to that trick years ago. Sleep tight, Judy- I remember you fondly. )
