Re: Frames & targets & tables ~~ OH MY!!!

NOpe, on second thoughts I looked a bit harder for the url for the tutorial, 
and I found it.   It's much better that you see it on the author's own site, 
because he's done a great job of writing it.  He's got a frames tutor, forms 
tutor,tables tutor, and lots of great tips and hints.  Specially for 
beginners.

It's at http://junior.apk.net/~jbarta/
