Oh, come on. This is 2007 not 1997! If I can post on Livejournal or Flickr or YahooGroups or GoogleGroups or almost any other online forum I'm in using a safe restricted subset of HTML, then there is *no* reason why it can't be done here as well.
I am, if that was not clear, only interested in and asking about posting HTML *in my own blog*. I don't expect or plan to use markup in forum posts at all.

It may be, but I'm still not prepared to (1) learn yet another markup language or (2) convert posts from other places, where I'd normally use HTML, into something different for here!

Thanks for that!

Gosh, the quoting really sucks as well, doesn't it? 8-o
10 posts of any kind anywhere? Er, OK. That's one for the FAQ, surely?
