yes moo is not for the beginners this is for sure! Just for the record I didn't post a question that didn't get answered I just noticed that a few went unanswered that seemed like they should have been answered like that one from ArtRyad about the slider class, and they few posts on mootools 2 I just asked what it was and was ignored, and this isn't an attack on this user group by any means, just frustrated about my learning mootools in general. :)
