Jeff,
My suggestion is a real short HOWTO posted to the list. I, for one would just
love to see what you did and I feel that once it was all in front of me once I
could digest it and handle the issue in the future. I feel that most people on
the list are of the same mind.
Please post how you did it and I will tuck it away for the next round of
tweaking.
Thanks for taking the time.
