This may be a bit OT. I'm fairly new here, but I've noticed a few posts over time that seem to indicate that it's possible to tell how many downvotes one of your own posts has gotten. tcf22, for example, says his post ended up with a decent rep, but that along the way it got downvoted. How can you tell? A couple of my posts have ended up in the hole, (a post-hole??) but I have no idea if they got just a few more -- than ++ or if they were all --. I don't so much care who gave the -- as I wonder about the balance of -- to ++. -ted-

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
