Hi Mike,

I solved the above with the 2 include problems I found.

That would work to make the image and title centered but I didn't want the text centered. But I can see I did overdo the center tags.

I have read this somewhere (that two <br> tags don't work) but it works for me in Netscape and I use it all the time. Does this only NOT work in certain browsers?

Right on!!!,
Thanks for your input.
