Question: will the substitution for the variable $dins occur if surrounded by single quotes?
I could be mixing languages here, but I seem to recall a rule in one language about substituting variable contents only occurring between double quotes.

Yeah, I figured someone would ask that. :) I couldn't find anything definitive on w3c.org; can someone back me up? AFAIK, they are required in XML and XHTML. It's a good habit to get into with regular HTML, also (although, yes, both will work in HTML). -- ---John Holmes...
