um...... TA DA!!!!!!!! Fixed If it wasn't for your reply CAM I would not have gotten to the point of....re-checking, what I THOUGHT I saw error-wise earlier..
So.... although it's not totally debugged it now works in the IEs AND I know what the problems are....generally... Amazing how the help one gets around this group really does.... change lives!!!!! May get to take a walk today because of the fix....:--) very very nice... who know how long I'd have looked, on the 'surpress errors and continue' thought... best wishes to all!
