Randy,
I haven't done much web development either. Our app that we're working on is mainly Windows, but we have a few Web capabilities thrown in. This stuff that I did was merely for finding out a "best practices" way of handling some of our requirements for the Web stuff. Don't know if it *is* the best way of doing things, but I spent enough time on trying to figure it out that I think we *better* use it. <g>

I agree with you that in certain situations your way is the best. I haven't done much web development at all, but I am getting the hang of it and I really like the different things that I am learning.
