Bad bug, replace or patch the following function to eliminate blank
'Place:'s and properly restore the source file.

FUNCTION fetchlineb$ (s AS STRING)
 DO
  ref$ = fetchline(s)
  IF ref$ = "" THEN quit
  IF INSTR(LCASE$(ref$), "a href") > 0 THEN EXIT DO
  a = filebelay(ref$)
 LOOP
 fetchlineb = purgehtml((ref$))
END FUNCTION

The bug?  If you have some HTML sorting codes in your source page and the
program encounters them, then it simply parses the html from the line and
this results in a blank line to be placed!

Bad spped progranner, bas seppd porgrammer.
