Also, if you can point to examples I tend to prefer the current dividing scheme. I find (always) that html divided up as the test handbook cited above is more confusing to read. I don't like having a TOC point me into the middle of another html-chunk, with text above me and text below me. It's confusing, distracting, and seems just plain sloppy. However, from a more practical perspective, slicing the handbook along chapters could be nicer since it allows one to easily download a single chaper, which I think is useful to do given that the expanded html version of the full handbook is 1509898 bytes (ie. more than can fit on a 1.44 floppy). -- tIM...HOEk Whoever told you I had a .signature was lying.
