Hi Ivan, The following is completely irrelevant to everything...but I'm waiting for something to finish running. :) > I must publicly admit that I have never ever worked with the HTML DOM > (as opposed to the XHTML DOM; I try to keep away from javascript > whenever I can:-), so... He he. Let's hope that this silly Ajax craze dies down soon, then, hey? ;) Actually, I think JavaScript is ideal for this kind of thing. I began my programming life as an assembler programmer, then moved on to C, then C++, with a bit of Java on the side. And I have to say that being able to create objects without declaring classes first (sacrilege!) is damned handy, and makes for a very quick development cycle. However, it's really difficult to see the evolution of your code afterwards, since morphing an anonymous class into another anonymous class is nigh on impossible to track, so I don't think I'd like to travel on a plane that was using JavaScript for its systems. :) Regards, Mark -- Mark Birbeck, formsPlayer mark.birbeck@formsPlayer.com | +44 (0) 20 7689 9232 http://www.formsPlayer.com | http://internet-apps.blogspot.com standards. innovation.
