Let's say you are understandably frustrated. I saw your post and
looked at it briefly, but nothing jumped out at me. (I've haven't used
the CGI library much, and not recently). That was about all I could do,
since I don't even own a Mac, at home or a work, and the only ones I
have access to are used by people who would not want me installing MSIE
on them.
If you want another pair of eyes to help you solve the problem I'll
be willing to help with looking and thinking, but that's about all I can
do.
