Thanks, maybe I'm biting off more than I can chew with WebKit.

Can we have a tutorial as well then :-)

I'm comfortable-ish but I'd forgotten that a PHP tutorial I once did made me
disable localhost access. Maybe that could go in tutorial?

Thanks.

Ah, let me hold my hand up. I'm an ex HyperCarding-Prograph mac head
learning unix and although I managed to get a CVS client half working, I
have NO IDEA how they work, what I should do, what I point it at etc.

There's a manual? Can I take a look? Or does that require cvs?

How about a compromise? Documentaries about Animals :-)

Agh! The open source killer blow, "If it doesn't work, fix it yourself"...
When I get more understanding, I'd love to look at MKBrower, it's would be
exactly the sort of tool I need for quickly prototyping experimental
database stuff.

Thanks for all your help, now that I've "remembered" the line-ending issues
I'll see if I can create a complex model.

cheers
