The URL bit is actually not all her fault. The website looks at the URL entered to see if it starts with "http://";. If it doesn't, it prepends "httpd://", on the theory that some people will enter "www.yahoo.com" all by itself. OTOH, she should have proofread the entry. -dave /*======================= House Absolute Consulting www.houseabsolute.com =======================*/
