Hi Kent, Just wanted to say thanks for the advice on the regular expressions. I've just created a regular expression which finds all 267 applets, my .index iterations were producing some cockeyed results, so I tried re in desperation, and it works, so simply. Looks pretty menacing, but it's good.
Got to say, that re is very powerful, but that redemo.py you recommended is brilliant for a beginner. I just wrote my re pattern in there, and used it to troubleshoot. So yeah, thanks again.
