That wouldn't help with on-line browsing from the Palm... About the only thing I can think of is to set up your own proxy server that fetches the pages, plucker-izes it, and sends it to the Palm. This would require changes to the viewer (or maybe a different viewer) that would: - let you type in an address and send the request to the proxy server - receive the response from the proxy, save it as a plucker document - do its normal thing - when the user clicks on an external link, ask the proxy server to fetch it Another, probably better, thought is adding an "external url" handler hook to the viewer. When the user clicks on an external url, invoke the handler. The on-line browsing handler could ask the proxy server for the document, save it, then invoke the viewer on the document. Don't know how performance would be, though... _______________________________________________ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
