Chris,
Thanks for the pointers. I needed them. I spent about 45 min going
through the web site, and had not scratched the surface.
I am still so new to this that even your sentence about "you run
it..." is hard to process unless I can see an example. I went to a
site recently for ASP and it has alot of coded examples of the simple
stuff, capture a variable, if statements, etc. and that was great
help to me. I looked for coded examples on the web site and didn't
find any so far (45 min is nothing when you are new to a web
site!)(So is the syntax you gave going in script tags? or where does
it fit into the style sheet? see how dense I am.)
I don't believe in spoon feeding philosophy, so simple examples are
the best way to avoid bugging people every time there is a little
glitch. I appreciate this list because reading the mail is a course
in itself.
