Thanks tye! I see what you mean about the whitespace when I read the node as well. Well IE is full of strangeness, but I find I have some problems with Opera and Netscape so generally I am stuck with IE on this machine because that is what my clientrs want me to use for checking the work I do for them.

Mozilla on my Linux box appears to be much saner environment, but sadly I cannot get clients to move! What they haven't woken up to yet is that all the apps I write for them are all cross platform! I generally use Perl/Tk for stand-alone stuff and of course all my Web Apps are running on Linux anyway.

Thanks for the advice, for whatever reason it is working fine now!
