texte = Since you all seem so interested in this default suffix issue I'm going to chime in here: I just did a Google search for ".dna" only to learn that there's not a single mention of WebDNA in the first ten pages -- and my pages are set to display 100 hits at a time -- which means WebDNA does not appear in the first 1000 Google hits. Isn't the point of using a new default suffix so that people who do not recognize it will 'get curious' and do a search for it in Google or some other web search engine? Or am I missing something here? If you're going to bother changing things, why don't you use the full software name as the suffix? The string "webdna" is certainly short enough to use in a suffix! For the above reasons and more I think the new default suffix should be ".webdna" ... and that's my two cents! :) Sincerely, Ken Grome Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
