Talking about books, I've browsed the 'Pure JFC Swing' book, and while the examples are quite nice and well commented, the author decided to kill a few trees in order to waste a few hundred pages on a compacted reprint of Sun's SWING API docs. That's why I can't recommend it. Half of the book is dead paperweight. ;) cheers, dalibor topic __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
