Shawn, Shawn, Shawn. Don't listen to those guys! Their a bunch of 'techno-geeks' who actually know what a CGI bin is!! (Just kidding guys, love 'ya!) There is truth to what they are saying as far as the applications to use for webpage writing. Nonetheless, the easiest and fastest way for someone unfamiliar, and wants to have 'neato' things on their pages, is to use a prepackaged, ready-to-go, point and click type of software. And Microsloth is the way to go for that. When you start to get comfortable with it and have spent some spare time finding out about HTML/DHTML/XML and Java/Pearl/CGI bins and all that other stuff, (shouldn't take more than 3 or 4 months, at which time it will all be updated and changed!), you can start to do some 'tweaking' at that point. HAHAHahahaaa......ahem. <cough-cough> Don't worry about being a purist at this point. You are doing fine with MSFP. You'll learn. There is fairly large learning curve but I'm sure you'll pick it up in no time. Better to have it up with FP than not up at all. It's funny, I've been playing with FP just recently too. While it's GUI intensive, it does want to do strange things. Go figure. I also like your page counter. When I hit refresh, it adds TWO hits! Now, it's not that padding is illegal or immoral, but.....hey. (Let me know how you did it buddy. ;^) Looks good buddy, keep it up, Brandon PS - IF you want to see what is going on in the background, you might want to try these programs, some are shareware, some are time demo's, some are free! Waahoo! HotDog Professional Webmaster Suite (30 days, Robust app!) HTML Easy - Free Adobe PageMaker - Costs... Notepad - Really! But you gotta learn about tags first. <humor> And it's free! </humor>
