Good story - and a good tie-in to the other off-topic thread about whether on not it is worth the trouble to use CVS. If you make sure that the only way to get between your workspaces and the test/production servers is a commit/update step, cvsweb can always provide a color-coded answer to questions like that. --- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED]
