Stuart Thanks, that looks as if it will do my job. I will give it a go ASAP, probably at the weekend.
BTW, I found a Flight article about our glass cockpit project http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1977/1977%20-%201182.html. The checklist display can be seen on the extreme right hand CRT in the picture. It is described on page 3 of the article.

This is now available. <item> nodes can now be grouped under a <page>, which the checklist display handles as you would expect. I've also added support for <marker> tags which leverage the existing tutorial markers. I've updated Docs/README.checklist and the wiki to reflect both these changes. As always, the c172p has an example (Aircraft/c172p/c172-checklists.xml). I've still to update the checklist->tutorial converter to support the tags - that's next on my TODO list. -Stuart ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
