So you should basically get for free what you > are trying to do here. I understand and appreciate what both of you are suggesting. However, i did learn a couple of things along the way (so that is a plus) and since i'm not exactly a developer (just a guy that knows how to develop) i'm already quite pleased with the fact that i got it running in the first place. Ant not being the clearest of languages around (esp true for lesser gods like myself ;-)).
When i'v got some cycles to spare i'll have another look into what you guys suggested and have a go at the alternate way of doing it.
