Almost. It's also possible for an RFC to update older RFCs without superseding them completely. For example, RFC 2396 (URI syntax) updates RFC 1766 (URL syntax), leaving the parts specific to certain URL schemes still in effect. -- John Cowan www.reutershealth.com www.ccil.org/~cowan [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lope de Vega: "It wonders me I can speak at all.
