Absolutely EXCELLENT Glenn !
I tried it and it works. It's a MAJOR improvement over a blank window. <G>
I don't think we need to really worry about the use of TEXTAREA.tmp for
Javascript that Bernie found. Since Javascript doesn't work yet, it would
be a good idea to re-direct that to the bit bucket. Might be an improvement.

Well, I looked at those button lines in Sendmail.ah and I don't understand
Arachne or HTML enough to do it myself. :(
If it was a <FORM ACTION> tag I think an example I found on desktop might work-
"file://send1.dgi" and "file://send0.dgi". These DGIs would perform "SMTP" and
delete or "SAVE" and delete.
But I don't know if you can replace "SUBMIT" with "FORM ACTION", and I don't
know how to make the DGIs do two things sequentially without calling a .bat.
