On the last question, technically yes. The key is, how big is big? If the global file is less than 1000-2000 lines, I wouldn't worry about it. If it starts getting so large that it's 50-100k, then yes you should probably break it up. Under 40k and don't even worry about it unless you are under an utterly immense server-strain. -- Plutarck Should be working on something... ...but forgot what it was.
