I am sorry to say that I am not the programmer to look to for making such extensive changes/additions. Yes, I can make little 'tweaks' here-and-there in the SRC code which can make existing features work a little better or a little differently than they did before. I can even make some small additions which add new features. (a few examples) added IgnoreJS, added IgnoreCID, added Https2Http, added $K, changed, POP3.LOG to make it more verbose, fixed the "Cacheindex.dgi bug" in WWWMAN.EXE, fixed the " 'Begin' located at start of line bug" in INSIGHT.EXE, (and a few other small changes). But as for adding JS support..... I must admit that this is beyond my programming abilities. :( > Does anyone have any constructive ideas about how to encourage > Arachne development? > Please speak up if you do. We need programmers who have better abilities than mine. Two of them come to mind right-off-the-bat. Bernie and Clarence. ;-) _________________________________________________ BTW, Please allow me to apologize to all list members for making those 'snide remarks' in my earlier replies. -- Glenn http://arachne.cz/ http://www.delorie.com/listserv/mime/ http://www.cisnet.com/glennmcc/ http://www.cisnet.com/glennmcc/aqc/
