In Response To: Re: Forum threads and other test feedback (Jonathan Leffler)

Hi Jonathan,

I completely agree with you. In fact I was so uncomfortable with the
inabiltiy to use the < sign that I reworked that area of the code to
ensure that every character on the 101 Enhanced US keyboard now works
including HTML code.

Thanks,

Pete
