Hi John,

I did as you suggested, split off just the javascript into it's  
own .js file and tried including it both ways (IE: <script  
src="blahblahblah"></script > and a php include)

Neither worked... had the same result... I'm wondering if something  
with the include is messing it up? Should I just try and put the whole  
thing in a <script> </script> in the head of the file? Not the most  
portable but if it would work...

THanks again for your help John!
