Somehow I missed this the first time round. I guess I'm not sure what you mean by that sentence. My goal is to be able to write an event-driven Perl program that is taking information from the UI, and passing information back. Ideally *not* by execing the Perl program everytime. -- Kee Hinckley - Somewhere.Com, LLC http://consulting.somewhere.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate everyone else's.
