Hope some one can help me out of a hole.

If you follow the above link, you will display a couple of dummy records. I have installed JPDeni's Mail Mod. However if you hit the CLICK HERE link I get a number of Bold Html tags before and after the field tag 71 or 72. I am truly stumped having spent hours on this one problem. Can anyone see why I am having the problem.

Here is an extract from my html.pl file. It may be the correct section - but then again I may have spent the last few hours counting brackets in the wrong bit of script! I hope that there is an expert out there who will help a newbie. Let me know other bits of script to post.

sub html_record {

Hi JPDeni

Thanks for answering.

That line is already in there. I originally installed your PRIVATE MAILER mod
now I am installing the FORWARD RECORD mod.

I saw your instructions in the Foward Record install for that line to be added, but it was already there, so I didn't duplicate it. - Here it is ...

=================================

my (%rec) = @_;

# START added by pjo for jpdeni private mailer
$rec{$db_key} =~ s/<?.B>//g;
# END added by pjo for jpdeni private mailer

=================================

Both mods seem to be working fine, apart from this <B></B> strange Bold codes. Panic over a little, because the script seems to ignor the bold codes now - just not very tidy, and always the possibility of a future problem.

Sorry to be bothering you with a little problem like this, when I can see some really involved development going on here. Who knows, I'll keep trying the script and reading this forum and one day...in a blinding flash.. it all might make sense.

Kind regards

PhilO

Try turning off bolding and see if that works.
