Pre tag madness

Well, that was maddening. I've noticed that using pre tags (to escape code posts) has caused me grief here. I just figured out why. For presentation purposes, the server converts all CR characters into <br> tags. That's what I wanted - but it used to wreak havoc with tables I'd post - having br tags scattered through the table caused all sorts of interesting display issues. So I had the server look explicitly for table tags, and not convert within them. Turns out that doing the same with the pre tags gets rid of some presentation glitches as well. The joys of HTML....
