Thanks. It works great. Basically you need to learn a little jscript
and the syntac of using it within your asp vbscript. I looked at the
microsoft site http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/index/default.asp
which is really great to learn indepth functionality of all asp
coding. The crucial part for me was learning the 
href="javascript:whateverfunction" syntacs.
Thanks again.
Alan
P.S. If you learn more send me a line.
