[snip] Yes, to rely on 1300 developers to all think of your cunning method of solving a problem clearly makes sense. After all, to *write down* a technique that solves the problem, and make it available to all of them would stilt their creativity, hinder their intellect, and prevent the development of a consistent style! Sheesh, next you'll be arguing in favour of personal indentation styles! cheers, Rich. -- rich walker | Shadow Robot Company | [EMAIL PROTECTED] technical director 251 Liverpool Road | need a Hand?
