But it's more compact for simpler tab. ;-) Anyhow, there's no reason why style (2) isn't something I could look at later (or concurrently) since they both require the same additional note information and have many display issues in common. So I'm happy to operate in style (1) for now. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
