    ok... are you saying my content has to be in xhtml to run it through
    the formatter?

    I was just formatting some of my old components. My app generates
    HTML 4.01 Transitional.

    So blah blah blah followed by a <br> is valid HTML 4.01 as far as I
    know. I'm guessing the Format command in the component editor is
    expecting xhtml, and if I'm not feeding it that then I should use it
    with care.
