No, you're not missing a thing. I just need to know exactly where to put the
line you sent me. The word "content" is mentioned a few times in the script
and I'm not a programmer, remember? Could you please indicate exactly where
you would put the line you sent me? I'm sure you are taking for granted that
I know more than I seem, but I don't. I'm a newbie at this and have to have
my nose put down into it before I understand. Where should I put the line?
Thanks!
