NT4.0 Option Pack causes linefeed error

[benski]

I installed the NT4.0 Option Pack to get MTS support.

The only (very irritating) bug is that some text on html pages doesn't seem to understand linefeed/carriage return characters.

This means that, say, the text underneath the VB-World logo on the left hand side of the screen that lists the topics in the site is all written on one line.

Help!

uh------no html page can render an ascii line feed character(Chr$(10)) or carraige return(Chr$(13). Everything that happens on an html page is rendered through html tags; no tags no render. Option pack 4 wouldn't effect the way your browser renders a page anyhow. An html line break or feed equivalent is the tag <BR>. Other tags make it look like there is a ascii line feed character or carraige return character but it's an effect of the tags being used.

Sorry - not too hot with html.

For a better example: The MSDN Library Visual Studio 6.0 (VB6's help program). In the right hand pane (the main text part) most of the text is being written on the same line.

That is, when I press F1 in VB the text that I can read is:
garbledgarbled6.0 Release
garbledgarbledgarbledgarbled and
garbledgarbledgarbember of the Visual Studio 6.0 family of development

And I can't click on any links - aaargh!!
