Valerio, I think you have looked into this and know what the best thing is, and you should go ahead and do it (no disrespect to ralf). I know you want a developer (someone in charge) to OK it, but i have learned that they don't work that way, and they are happy for you to go ahead and do the sensible thing on their behalf. nigel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
