Unless you reassigned values to form variables in your pages, you will never even see this security feature in action.> > Have these issues been resolved?

You cannot realistically have a single machine for production and testing/development. Since SMSI has most helpfully allowed unlimited use of the software in development mode (with the banner at the bottom of the page), there is really no excuse not to have a second machine available for testing.HTHJohn-- John Peacock Director of Information Research and Technology Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group 4720 Boston Way Lanham, MD 20706 301-459-3366 x.5010 fax 301-429-5747------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
