[Christopher Kimball <transcriber AT tanach.us>]

The Unicode/XML Westminster Leningrad Codex

http://www.tanach.us/Tanach.xml#Changes

has been updated to a version dated 17 Mar 2009.

The update includes new names for the text layout and a new layout, 
"Note-free".  The "Note-free" layout contains all the text features 
except transcription notes and is particularly helpful when copying and 
pasting text into other applications.

* * *  Caution: This update introduces an incompatibility with previous 
versions.  In viewing previous versions the text may not  be displayed.  
If this happens, reset the Layout pull down list.   * * *

Titles can be added to HTML links which appear in the displayed text.   
For example,

http://www.tanach.us/Tanach.xml#Deut26:5-9&Brief=1&t1=First_fruits_blessing&t5=This_is_an_example_with_2_of_5_titles.  
.

Here under bars "_" have been used instead of blanks to prevent the mail 
system from breaking up the URL; they're not necessary in HTML 
documents.  The parameter Brief=1 is included for a concise presentation. 

The Hebrew text is unchanged.

Please advise if you experience difficulties.
