I took this as your direct response: > That is part of your job as a developer, unfortunately. I was keying on your response as it pertains to the first part of my statement, not the second. The "can't" part should never enter into the conversation unless it really can't be done. I do agree its my job to warn people that they want something crazy. If my clients (in particular the one that wanted the javascript hole to be opened up) could see this and see me coming across as the guy who wants to let people happily run barefoot through the data stream they would be howling. I don't go gently or quietly into the night on this stuff with the end user. But sometimes it really does make sense. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Janitor, The Robertson Team mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
