As for entity changes, like using &base; instead of ../.. or such, I can say the entities are better for translators. I can easily notice what is linked from my translated pages and what is from the English ones with &enbase;. As for the double spaces, they are also useful when updating translated webpages. I can easily count which sentence has been changed and can easily find the equivalent. And as for the indentation, I consider it good in general to have systematic files, that look the same and follow the same guidelines. It is just easier to work with such stuff. -- Cheers, Gabor
