This could be translated - Visual Studio .NET is doing the whole thing for me and I don't have time / don't know how to change it. in which case you would be asking him to learn something he doesn't know and/or do more work. Or it could be translated - I really don't know how to modify it even if I went into the code. in which case you might be challenging his level of knowledge. > that was his argument. why cant he contain it with css. > can somebody help me educate him? It depends. I don't mean to scare you but sometimes people don't respond well to this stuff. Does he usually respond well to advice/criticism? Is he interested in learning better ways of doing things? More importantly, the first thing to find out is whether or not he is using the WYSIWYG view. If so then he probably really doesn't know how to do this and he might not be open to learning. Otherwise it might just be as simple as asking him to go into code view and write custom forms. -- -- Christian Montoya christianmontoya.com ... rdpdesign.com ... cssliquid.com ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
