Thanks for the reply! In doing a little experimenting I found that FireFox
didn't accurately read the length of the content whereas IE and Opera do. I
have used illegal xhtml transitional coding (as well as some javascript
thrown in for good measure) to have it do what I want, but if there is a
better way to serve up the content (see my comments to Jonathan Little) I
will switch.
