This is a hard one. We started using TT within paragraphs as there were design issues with <code> because it make it hard to read. Has this been resolved? I'm traveling right now so if someone could do some tests, that would be awesome and let's fix this. Permanently since <tt> is archaic. A search and replace of the database would be necessary, or we just go forward from here with <code> and not <tt>. Or we continue with what we have, but I'd love to be done with it. <br>
