Description Scott Knauert 2006-09-01 00:05:57 UTC
Version:           0.11.3 (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
OS:                Linux

Kopete does not seem to interpret HTML tags in away messages, at least in the AIM plug-in. I know full HTML support would be a bit much (though not impossible but using a KHTML plug-in), but at least basic HTML 3.2 tags such as <br>, <i>, <b>, <a>, etc. as well as common ASCII characters such as &nbsp;, and $gt; should be supported as they are on the official client.

I'm almost certain I saw a bug report for this before, and I think it
was fixed too. don't have time to search for it right now though.
try upgrading to 0.12

Chani is right. I could have sworn I did a bug search before posting, but a quick search of "HTML away message" brought up Bug 120468, which is basically the same thing. 

Downloaded 0.12 release for Debian and this has not been address yet. If it has been and is in CVS, great. Sorry for posting a dupe.
