Ok, I'm clear on that now.

I'll investigate further. Right now I'm working on the ViewState issue.

Thanks a lot, Seb. I think I spent too long pouring over the docs, mailing
list archives, wiki, demos/examples and stfw. I wasn't seeing the pattern of

clearer on things now.
I'll let you know how I progress with this.
