You could have the page output options to a formatted plain text file. Sample Format { bold = 0; italic = 1; } and then when the page loads it reads in the options from that file and alters the page accordingly. For extra credit use a database rather than a plain text file, but if you haven't done that before (and there is a deadline) this is probably the easiest learning curve. -- phill -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
