Scott: I have not, nor did I intend, to imply that the HTML editor had any likely connection with the problem. I believe I have made it quite clear that whatever is creating the so-called border is being inserted by something beyond the control of the HTML editor and beyond both my capabilities and control.
I believe this to be proven by Inger's efforts on my behalf to edit the image, which, as I reported to him, when uploaded to Bluehost as the main image in index.html, continues to have the same "border" as all my editing efforts, etc. I continue to suspect some odd behavior on the part of Bluehost, a suspicion that I doubt that I could ever prove.
With that, I shall express my thanks to all who have participated in a valiant effort to assist. I have already told the site owner that I was having no success whatsoever in presenting the photo as he wants it to be seen; I shall inform him that I'm not going to spend any further time on this, and return to my writing my history of the second fire department I started, the history of the first such organization having already been posted.
