The natural reaction for this would be to call it abnormal, and tell them to learn how to use a web page, but we all know how the real world is. I like the original ideas from Peter and Ashley. Store a session or cookie, use ajax to periodically update a database table with the information, then re-populate it if/when they come back. I kinda like that word Paradigm. Rolls off the tongue nicely. I'm going to use it 3 times today before I leave the office. -- -Dan Joseph www.canishosting.com - Unlimited Hosting Plans start @ $3.95/month.
