Description cahrens 2003-05-15 15:56:03 UTC 
The following HTML code is valid syntax (the + sign 
increases the font size by 2).  However, the + signs are 
always flagged as errors.  Sometimes the # sounds also are 
highlighted as errors, for instance if I delete the + sign.

<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" link="0033CC" vlink="#666666">

<font size=+2 color=#000066><b class="middoc"><img 
src="docicon_product_page.gif">&nbsp;What's New</b></font>

Works if attribute value is quoted but it is a bug.
