Thank you very much for your answer, Rory,
but I fear I don't understand the most important parts of it.
It would be very nice of you if you could give me a further hint, more
explanation.

What do you mean with that meta tag?

And what is an ajax type system? I'm not sure if I don't understand what
you mean due to my lack of english speaking capabilities or if I don't
know the concept.
I assume the last. But additionaly I don't find the word "ajax" in my
dictionaries or at leo's. Is it an abbreviation?
Kind regards
