So you should be able to start with the php that generates that and convert it to generate C-Html (since you mentioned i-mode I assume thats what you really want?)
Unfortunately I've not got access to the code right now to check that what I'm saying is true, but I think what I'm saying is correct, hopefully someone who knows more than me can say for sure :) -- - Ciaran (I now have far too many G-Mail invites available, anyone who wants one, gets one) _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
