You were right - I did just send it to him.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Ah yes, I should have mentioned this. I need to de-couple the actions from the output. I have begun to implement the web site using a simple binary state machine where the current page, based on user input, directs both the action (if any) and the next page. This 'next page' can follow any number of different actions or even no action at all (in the case of a simple navigation). As such, I envisioned taking advantage of run modes to implement a two stage decision tree - ie, have each current page set an 'action' mode param value and a 'new page' mode param value. Then, I could use run() to invoke the first (again, if any) subroutine, change the mode param, and then invoke the second subroutine which would create the output. Sorry I didn't make this more clear - as several of you have pointed out, I must eventually create some output! BTW - I am also using HTML:Template as the author suggests. Comments?

See my reply to DJCP ... I'm not seeing this reply -- either I deleted it and don't remember it, or my mail is slow (or it went only to him). I guess the question is...The user is on a web page, they follow a link to perform an action. _SOMETHING_ needs to appear on their screen, what do you want it to be? I described a solution that would just update the screen, but it seems you want something else. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
