He Ken.. I've read your paper.  I think I understand most of what you write.

I am confused a little at exactly what happens when you run the .prg file produced in the paper and where the htm code is generated.  Is it like the wizard and running the program produces the .exe page(s) and the htm code so you can place it on the page?  Or possibly does this program that you wrote in the paper somehow work on the internet?   And if that is the case where does the program go?  How does it initiate?  I don't understand that that part.

Also did you just copy webclass.cc to gs_webclass.cc and then you were able to change the program without disturbing webclass.cc?  I thought that is what you meant, but wasn't sure.

Thanks
