Sorry, I had been up all night crunching code, and was dead on my keyboard! I use the online text editor that my host provides. I re-worked most of that page.....I have NO errors now! WHooo--hooooooo! (Now on to the other pages in the site..) How bad is it to just NOT put ANY charset on a page? I mean, Certainly my host has it set on the server itself, right? Is there any way to find out what he has it set for.....other than asking him?

As for the character on line 87, I saw that too yesterday. Now the problem seems to be gone. Anyway, it looks like you only use ASCII characters, so us-ascii should be fine. Regards, Martin.
