how do I switch to HTML in the composition window

I normally compose messages in plain text, and digitally sign them. However, on occasion I'll want to embed a picture, so I want to switch to HTML. The only way I've found to do that is to change the account setting before bringing up a composition window. I'd prefer to switch to HTML for just that message, and do it from the composition window. Have a missed a feature somewhere that does this?

Thanks for the tip. Would like an entry in one of the pull down menus for this.

on your composition or 'write' page: Place the cursor where you would like to insert the HTML code. Click 'Insert' Click 'HTML' Paste the HTML code into the box provided. Click 'Insert', and you are done.
