I am not really sure that accepting behavior like you might get from: javascript:alert(NaN=NaN==NaN);alert(NaN==NaN) means that j having different behavior is necessarily bad. (I wanted to construct a more meaningful example, but was stymied by javascript's lack of expressive power.) -- Raul ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
