OK, that's fine - I've reviewed the class stuff and it hangs together. I'm used to the static and class methods in Python - there is a distinction. Statics have no reference to the class; class have access to class-wide values. See staticmethod and classmethod in http://docs.python.org/lib/built-in-funcs.html Hugh ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
