Thanks Jim - I've emailed you separately. One thing I have noticed of more
general interest is that the name of the current page is appearing as a
live link
- eg. Home | Standards and guidelines
which is of course redundant for anyone on that page. I've had a look in
the script but this isn't my forte, and I can't see anything relevant. Any
ideas anyone?
Thanks,
Bob

Thanks Jim - I've emailed you separately. One thing I have noticed of

as a live link<br><br>
- eg. <font color="#0000FF"><u>Home</u></font> |
<font color="#0000FF"><u>Standards and guidelines<br><br>
</u></font>which is of course redundant for anyone on that page. I've had
a look in the script but this isn't my forte, and I can't see anything
relevant. Any ideas anyone?<br><br>
