(we have to create it with a child otherwise it immediately disappears.) i think this mechanism would address your need in a way that is easy to implement and use. it would also allow you to do a cool barrier implementation! ben On 03/22/2010 10:37 AM, Patrick Hunt wrote: > > Dominic Williams wrote: > >> >> What I'd sugges...
