They stay with the indexes and as people's links FOREVER! (or at least close to it.) Renaming is almost worse because then you haven't even gotten rid of the content. (Which, presumably, would be the reason to delete a file.) We try hard to make sure that pages we create will stay there and not vanish in the future. - shawn Shawn Steele Webmaster Association of Brewers (303) 447-0816 x 118 (voice) 736 Pearl Street (303) 447-2825 (fax) PO Box 1679 shawn@aob.org (e-mail) Boulder, CO 80306-1679 info@aob.org (aob info) U.S.A. http://www.aob.org/aob (web)
