You guys also might want to get with Tim who's done a lot of work with this tag also. This link shows the changes he's made: http://timgolden.com/taglib/ All of this functionality and the latest changes you guys made should be combined. I think possibly one of you guys should maybe take over this project and set up a yahoo group or something. A lot has been brought up as of late and a lot of changes have been made to it over time. I think I started way back with the ability to define a columns parameter and then I noticed Tim made tons more changes. Now with the changes you made Robert it's come along even further. Ed seems to have dropped out of existence so I don't think he would mind his work continuing forward.
