that does not excuse the rudeness of the replies. Obviously the module was located, but upon casually reviewing the inadequate documentation, I would have the same question.

1. I wasn't being rude, I posted a link to an obvious first module to try when solving the problem.

2. It wasn't at all obvious the module was located - that information was added later. If the original poster already tried the module and/or couldn't get it to do what he wanted he should have said so, preferably with some specific pointers/questions about why it didn't work.

Update: removed some irrelevant stuff when I saw the OP was edited.
