Hi David,

As a user support tech, I'd certainly appreciate it if you and others would stick with 
Perl and standard html for coding.  I've had some frustrating experience with 
PHP-generated images--they dont't print properly across browsers because they are 
transmitted as a bit satream rather than files.

As student using our computers had to PrintScreen his Earthquake Investigator's 
certificate to complete his project because the PHP generated image just wasn't wuite 
there, even though it was.

Use Perl--its less spooky.
