> OK, forgive my tone here...I'm actually quite flabbergasted. OK But first, when writing to a mailing list with an issue that you want resolved it's necessary to describe the issue. Some issues can be solved by just reading the author's description. Others, like yours, need a lot more detail.

"this 79Kb albatross"? What is "this"? Are you referring to one of your own projects? > No, OK, I won't condemn it yet, but can somebody enlighten me? You're very gracious... *rollseyes* > (I thought this would be easy.) No one can say why you're having a difficult time (for the reasons I listed above) but one thing is sure, jQuery *IS EASY*. But these issues are often due to PEBKAC: a frustrating and illusive problem. I think you'll come to find that the jQuery community is very helpful. Just look at all the people who are eager to solve your problem! Chris.
