Graham,
Thanks for posting all this information. Just knowing how to do this
is a huge load off my database setup chores. I did it and it worked
perfectly.
I have one more question, however. How can I assign the market
category using the javascript file? I assume it would have to be
some other sort of 'stock.****' variable, but I'm not a java
programmer and I'm not sure of the syntax that would be required.
Thanks.
