Help, Mom, they are beating be! It was just loud thinking. I am new to WebCat, you know, and wondering about concepts I do not fully understand yet. Let me explain in short, what I mean: When you write database commands and HTML in one document it would be easier to follow some rules, the one or the other. For example I am used to write code with indents, so I am surprised that it is allowed with some commands and with some not. Now I know that everything which writes text has to be properly formatted on screen. I miss some basic and some more detailed descriptions in the manual, and some important features like string variables. But it is a very powerful and flexible program, I like it more and more... Now I am going back to work, developing some really silly basic questions to make you smile again ;-)Peter__________________________________________ Peter Ostry - po@ostry.com - www.ostry.com Ostry & Partner - Ostry Internet Solutions Auhofstrasse 29 A-1130 Vienna Austria fon ++43-1-8777454 fax ++43-1-8777454-21 Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
