Hi Gunnar, I am working with Pamster on the ringlink and we had discovered that the the stray character would be inserted into the fragment after the 1054 character. All the code was on one line at this point. When we inserted breaks through notepad, it appears that the occurance seems to have stopped. However we have not yet tested it enough to know for sure. We haven't found it in all the emails, only some of them. here ya go - I've posted a zip file for you here http://www.pamster.addr.com/for_gunnar.htm It's on the 19th line - looks like this coords="127,204,127,221,89,210,63,193,51,176,!

Was it correct in some emails, and incorrect in others? I have no idea. Could you please post the code that was distorted (or a URL to where it can be seen), so I can take a closer look at it. / Gunnar
