Here is what I created for the Debian web site a number of years ago when I was the webmaster. The changes needed for flightgear are straightforward. The one requirement is a cgi which redirects the user to the proper site: <form method="get" action="http://cgi.debian.org/cgi-bin/redirect.pl"> <input type="hidden" name="page" value="/"> <small>Select a server near you:</small> </font> <br> <select name="site" style="font-size:90%;"> <option value="au">Australia</option> <option value="at">Austria</option> [lots of countries snipped] <option value="uk">United Kingdom</option> <option value="us" selected>United States</option> </select> <input type="submit" value=" Go " style="font-size:90%;"> <br> </form> I can provide the redirect script, but it's pretty simple. -- James (Jay) Treacy [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
