Well, that's my point. You use FP's *version* of a style sheet by
applying formatting through the interface, versus creating a REAL style
sheet...hence the gibberish problem on the page. You end up with font
info within the code, as well as MS specific coding. 

And this type of font coding just isn't allowed in some cases, like the
software I use for TechTrax, for instance. When I remove the CSS, my
formatting codes are removed...your stuff would need a lot of manual
cleaning to return to text only so it can be used on a site with it's
own CSS. That's why they say users can't use FP cos' it interfers with
the master CSS.

NOTE...I'm NOT putting you down for using FP...it's a good program. I
just do things with my pages that need to be clean and FP just doesn't
qualify as being usable in this case. See examples below...

Note...this is HTML code from YOUR web site...note raw font codes...

Whereas here's some from one of my recent pages, which DOES use a real
