Sorry, my example wasn't very clear. The 'name' of the elements would be what you'd check in your application logic, and these are never shown to the user. 'Approve' and 'Reject' would be the 'value' of the submits, so these could be anything depending on your i10n settings. -- Tim Fountain http://tfountain.co.uk/
