LOL. You just couldn't resist having another dig at me, could you? IMO
my "advise" [sic] was good, and (second time lucky) I cross-posted to
alt.html which is a more appropriate newsgroup for the topic, where "MS"
could ask for clarification or more information.
Anyway, it was still more helpful than your "you start by RTFM" response
to <1148469014.190473.71330@i40g2000cwc.googlegroups.com>.
BTW should I feel flattered that you've chosen me as a sparing partner?
