Stan,

The problem wasn't in the body of an email.  The problem is at the site 
itself.  When you clicked on the link for the next page of this article, 
which the friend could have consolidated using the printer friendly link, 
you were then on the Times site, requesting another Web page, and so you 
were again in Internet Explorer and having the same problem.  I hope this 
helps to clarify where you were and why the problem happened.

Arianna and Yardbird: I have tried the style sheet solutions and find that
they
work sometimes but not all the time. You are right, Arianna, the one thing
that
works all the time is to unload jaws 6 and load up 5.

But I did not think I would see the problem pasted into the body of an
email.
It surprised me.

Stan
