Wow. The world is over indeed. At any rate, it looks like I might get to write soem code today after all. My idea is to take the builditn checker and make it spit out html. I know very little about generating html, but Ihave some nice books here. Of course, what would be best is if you already had a page that mostly did what you want this page to do, so I could simply 'make one like that'. Anybody got a candidate?
