Thanks for the repost. Now I understand your previous post better. I
didn't realize the significance of a pls vs a static url until your
comment and reading back through the thread. I still don't understand
the "under the hood" mechanics behind how the pls can be dynamic, but no
matter. My strength is electronics, not IT. Sometimes it's best to say
"ok, it's working again"

I appreciate you pointing out that the pls route is bound to be more
reliable, thanks.

Jim
