Hi Dave,

Using your example, I was not able to reproduce your problem.  I did not 
see any new tags get created in the editor, nor did I fail to ese the 
"If this test works this should print" message.

What happens when you view the frame source of your page that omits "if 
this test works this should print?"

Is it there with some kind of tag around it?

Did you make any changes to standard_html_header?
