Thanks all! Just to re-cap, I'm having two problems on this little project. 1) Showing UTF-8 correctly. I have "solved" this by using the older revolution server that On-Rev provides. 2) My text list of programs, from which I retrieve program title and host, suddenly 'disappeared' as far as t

Mike (and Lyn), I think you both missed the point about Tim's original problem : his page works with the OLD rev Server, and fails with the latest LC server (6.6.2) So while I agree that it is probably better to not pursue issues in old versions, I don't think Tim has much choice, unless s
