hey gruntt, a little thing called 'expression engine' might help. cms from pmachine. i does all the stuff for you so you don't have to learn it. except i don't think it morphs logos into unicorns that gallop away off the screen...
- gruntt0
jj - if it won't morph logos in unicorns i really have no use for it.
- jakeyj0
yeah, most people want that feature...
- kelpie0
I was the first ever guy to apply the unicorn morph technique to a site by the way. Really covered the cowbell angle in the old days.

ahhh you're welcome gruntt. I have a Russian Dr.'s phone number for the transplant. Don't worry cosmo is a dummyhead when it comes to us tricking him into being sedated.

I started out with coding the html/css and having another guy add the coldfusion... I quickly learned a few basic tags, and manipulated the markup [very minimally at first]. Then I got used to viewing the code and could edit previously added tags, and finally worked my way up to eventually writing queries from scratch...
i'm totally out of practice now.
