The links on that page could prove to be interesting, especially "DOM_AGNOSTIC_BRANCH", which will then lead you to some C++ code examples. I haven't looked at the code closely, but it appears to be directly derived from mozilla code, and might be windoze-specific. tim * Tim Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [060127 13:34]: > > * Petr Krenzelok <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [060126 21:05]: > > > > > > Cool.
