Each UI kind has its own nuances such that you cannot translate one-to-one without oddities or living with the lowest-common-denominator. For example, in VB you had a "combo-box" which is a pull-down list with the option of typing your own text. There is no HTML equivalent or one-size-fits-all substitution. ________________ oop.ismad.com
