As a former SiteEdit proowner and user, I found siteEdit to be quite useful. However, not allbrowsers wanted to play nicely with it.We were fine as long as the client was using Netscape Navigator on a Mac.But lots of our clients were using MSIE on PCs and they were not able totake advantage of the site upload feature in SiteEdit, defeating my reasonfor getting it in the first place.Perhaps this has been fixed along with that nasty truncated text problemthat Pacific Coast didn't like to talk about, but until they say it workscorrectly with all popular browsers and it doesn't cut of the display oftext in text area fields, I would not recommend it to anyone.I was forced to stop using it and I eventually had to get FTP servers instead.Paul _/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/|\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ _/_/_/Paul Uttermohlen, Internet Marketspace, Inc. \_\_\_\_ _/_/_/ mailto:paul@ims1.com - Website Development \_\_\_\_ _/_/_/ Business - _\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ _/_/_/ Real Estate - _\_\_\_\_ _/_/_/Websites - Children _/ _\_\_\__/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/_/ | \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
