There have been a few attempts at making it possible to program a web browser using Python. In fact, one is being discussed and developed right now - search the list archives for Brython. But normally, the way to script a user's browser is to use JavaScript. I'm not sure how IronPython fits into your picture; it's an implementation of Python that uses the .NET framework. Unless you have a very good reason for wanting to use Python (eg you want to share code with another Python project), I strongly recommend learning JavaScript. What you're looking to do is fairly simple, and not worth downloading to the user's browser a massive language engine - because that's how systems like Brython work. Keep it simple, learn a few languages, and you'll become a better programmer for it :) ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
