thanks a lot Joerg. Really interesting... I concluded the best way to go is . this fantastic list . tutorials and references in websites . trial and error I've used this site a few times http://www.dpawson.co.uk It was helpful. Will it be online again? I know a way to go through it. Do you know this site http://www.archive.org/? look at this http://web.archive.org/web/20011130211203/http://dpawson.co.uk/ this is a november 2001 version of the site... nice eh?
