Maybe I'm missing something here but I'm not sure why you consider it more user friendly to pop-up a window (and have it disappear automatically). If I was a user I would be thinking "what the hell was that?". And if their connection was fast enough that they don't even notice the window pop-up & disappear, and just see the main page refresh how different is that to the 'one page and use a "middle-man" technique'? -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * /* If *I* had a hammer, there'd be no more folk singers. */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
