*giggles* Hacks are cool. Thx mucho James. I'll try your idea &/or ndiscreets. Not sure which yet will yield better results. As an aside, any chance someone can point me to a "newbie-fied" apache install/maintenance URL? I'm pretty useless with HTML/web stuff...having never tried it, but am a fast learner *Smiles*. Thx for all you guys' help! I hope to get this working soon...lord knows I've learned alot since I asked what I thought was a simple question. Heh, never underestimate the power of linux to make it complex fast :) Femme
