Thanks, JDS and others.
Sounds like it's probably the slashes (argh!). The %5C came in when putting
the <body> elements into the nvu-provided head elements. I'm at work right
now and can't test it. What threw me off looking at the slashes was that the
backslashes used to work. (Please don't flame me for not knowing or caring
about which way the slashes are supposed to go.)
Best,
William
