a relevant code snip:

if os.path.exists('ConfigureMe'):
	f1=open('ConfigureMe','r')
	tablebgcolor=string.strip(f1.readline())
	papercolor=string.strip(f1.readline())
	inkcolor=string.strip(f1.readline())
	linkcolor=string.strip(f1.readline())
	f1.close()

Eacj line in the file contains color configuration information to 
include into a webpage later on (for instance, 'peach, 'wjhite', 
'black', 'Blue').

tablebgcolor contains the entire text file being read, not one line.

this program opereates in a windows 2000 environment if this helps any.

when examined in a text editor, the file is properly laid out. pLease 
help, the fingernails are getting very close to the quick.
