I dun get it Irv. Are you saying that an xtra that can embedd a webpage in Director will _still_ need to be programmed to send and retrieve messages from the server? What I was talking about was to embedd the HTML front ends into Director by using the xtra and letting the web pages communicate with the CGI scripts residing on the server. Dunno what you meant.
