Hmm, for the enduser I fail to see the advantage over an action vs. a timeout.
If I bought this service and one of the reasons being, ftp access, I hate to
have to do an extra step - or wait - just to see if my changes have been
accepted and THEN see if the changes I made have the effect I want to see.
That really takes the fun outof debugging and I would have used some freehost
with a homepagebuilder so I know I get frustrated before-hand :-).
