I don't get it . . . all I see are 'placeholders,' for everything except the free web-hosting.

Am I doing something wrong?

Ah, I went back and found the ones you linked . . . just hadn't clicked enough little buttons the first time.

I think you could easily have it default to having the entire tree rolled down. I think most computer users understand the plus and minus buttons and how they work -- it's pretty intuitive, and easy to pick up for those who may not have seen it before. Then, a visitor could roll up the ones he wasn't interested in and un-clutter it himself.

Tao, I just spent some time looking at the update -- very effective. The color change on mouse-over is a nice touch for the tree. (I know that was there before, just forgot to mention it earlier.)

I can see how this would work for you.

I also spent some time looking at your "Creator and the Catalyst" page and bookmarked it. How often do you update that, and what kind of readership do you have?

However, Creator & the Catalyst is Mark Edgemon's page. I link to it as a courtesy, and I provide a little administrative advice there. The main theme is his brainchild. : )
Oops . . . guess I missed that. :oops:
