<!-- cut everything as I'm probably way off the mark anyway --> I've only just joined this mailing list, so have missed the initial discussion. Is this anything like what you want to do? http://www.liamdelahunty.com/tips/javascript_radio_totals.php It grabs random numbers and adds them up as you select various radio buttons. It could easily pull data from a db or whatever.. Kind regards, Liam Delahunty
