jquertil, I am the least qualified person to answer you, but am
disappointed that you haven't received any replies to either of your
posts, so am bumping you up!
I have this difficulty all the time -- and you're clearly more
advanced than me. I *think* you need to create a namespace - which I
**think** means naming your function. If there is any simple
documentation about this, I haven't found it yet!
Good luck - and, if you don't get a reply but find the answer anyway,
please post it back!!
Cherry :)
