texte = Hi Grant,>I suspect your preceeding formula had an extra tab or carriage return in >it. WebCatalog senses those things and tries its best to compensate >(rather than blowing up), but it can't fix everything.I agree, it is better to have the site developer tear their hair out than the customer when/if the site crashes. No argument!I do think that we'll start using an editor for the formulas which can show control characters and possibly even allows hierarchical display of nesting. BBEdit might be a candidate ? Any others that would be better ?I hope that the help you gave us also helped others so that our confusion didn't just add noise :-) -Sven_____________________________________________________________________ Sven U.
