Not sure if this message got through so I apologize for the re-post if it did :-)
-------------- Sorry all, I'm not sure if i'm coming or going today! I had forgot to set up our external DNS server for the address http://new.thetoyz.com It is now set up and should be pointing to the server. The page to see is actually here: http://new.thetoyz.com/index1.lasso (note the index1.lasso instead of index.lasso) Here's the link again for the page displaying the table code: http://new.thetoyz.com/navcode.abc Again, apologies - It's been one of those days!
