HTML Code Display
-- I write many of my more complicated web pages directly in HTML code and in text-only Word files. Word 6.01a displays text-only files as they are and saves the text-only files with one key stroke or mouse click as text-only files. However, opening a text-only HTML file in Word 98 displays the file as rendered HTML and not the HTML text code itself--just like WordPerfect 3.5 or Adobe PageMill. This is the principal reason why I've used Word and not WordPerfect for the past couple of years. In Word 98, one has to select HTML Source to see the actual code but even then it is rendered in a tiny, dim and hard-to-read font. So far I have been unable to figure out how to change the font or font size in the HTML Source code view. There is a button to make the font bigger but since it just gets bigger and doesn't wrap, one has to scroll right to see the text code. Maybe I'll discover a way to view text-only HTML files as text-only, but until then this is a deal-killer for me.
