Thanks for the pointer, I was actually aware of that possibility.
Problem is, I don't even know if there will be time to count on DNS
change permutation. I have no faith in them getting stuff to me 72 hours
ahead of time. I'm not above ugly php and mod_rewrite hackery. Any
examples/pointers on that idea? Do you think commodity hosting has
mod_proxy enable for the mod_rewrite mod_proxy one-two? 

If that doesn't work, I will probably write a screen scraper to tear the
whole tg site down into hundreds of static html files. It's one of those
jobs, the database is simple, there are just a million colours of cloth.
And the gig got to me a month later than I told them it should .... ;)

Still, I'd rather make them happy than tell them they're out to lunch. 

Thanks
Iain
