in thread printing html entities

Or some new ones =) The spec for those codes says that the ";" is needed unless the ampersand and codestring are followed by whitespace or other character illegal in a codestring. That means that <html> always works, <html> is wrong since <h may someday mean something and then which do you choose? IE tries to find a working match down the string which is nice but breaks in the future and shows the wrong tag. It has also taught a half million people to do it wrong and then yell at the NS and Opera people.
