Right, that's not the case. It only passes to the :Chained or :Args or :CaptureArgs methods. This leaves you free to create your own internal methods that don't get extra $c args interfering with your logic. -- [http://www.serensoft.com/sites/all/themes/marinelli/img/serensoft_logo_screen.gif] Will Trillich :: 812.454.6431 “Grading takes away all the fun from failing.
