Hi James,
Thanks, that clears it up a bit (my O'Reilly DHTML book inferred it was
possible, and it's normally not wrong, so I got confused!)
<question type=rhetorical>How come I can hack perl (and enjoy myself!)
but Javascript gets me everytime?</question>
As an aside, the reason I was slow on the <NOSCRIPT> tags is 'cause NN
2.0 doesn't support them, but _does_ support scripting, and last time I
analysed the access log a small but significant percentage of users were
using NN2, so I don't use them. Am I making life too hard for myself by
trying to be that backwards compatible? What does everybody else do?
