You've run into the interesting way that 'join works on tag!.
>> rejoin [<font> "class=" "Ryan C. Christiansen" </font>]
== <fontclass=Ryan C. Christiansen</font>> Basically you have to convert the tags to strings to work as you'd expect, as 'join on a tag! will put the stuff in the block inside the tag. Something like this from my HTML! component, soon to be released on RebMail list, and my Web Dialect list: A: func [File [file! url!] Link [string!] /Top] [ rejoin ["" join <a> [{ href="} Encode File {"} either Top [{ TARGET="_top"}] [""]] Link </a>] ] Which from script like this: H1 A URL/Absolute Spectrum-Studios Name Spectrum-Studios generates HTML like this: <h1><a href="http://members.nbci.com/SpectrumStudios/Spectrum Studios.html">Spect rum Studios</a></h1> The above line is broken by the email client I'm using. Note that 'Spectrum-Studios is a object like: Spectrum-Studios: Make-Page "Spectrum Studios" %"Spectrum Studios.html" [ Title Name Spectrum-Studios Body <snip!> I hope that helps!
