Sridhar, Do some sites actually test for browser capabilities dynamically (that is, each time someone connects to their site)? It seems like the hard way to go. If I was going to change capabilities (or limit access) based on the type of browser, I can't imagine doing anything other than checking for a browser ID string. regards, Randy Kramer
