I wouldn't fret too much about a sharp remark from Fredrik Lundh. They're pretty much all that way. ;) It looks like you already did the right thing - read past the insults, and gleaned the useful information that he included in between. It takes a little training to get used to him, but if you can look past the nasty bite, he's really a valuable resource around here. STeVe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
