I suggest you wait since 3.x alpha is out now but I've had worse probs with this one so I reverted back to the latest stable release.<br>I've also been running 2.0a for another site and have never had this problem with this version before.
<br>So I'd be interested to see your results with 2.9 or 3.x<br><br>thx for your all help<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 6/15/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Jim Avery</b> <<a href="mailto:jim@jimavery.me.uk">
