You seem to have that right. I changed out that file like you said and it went back to working. Now, only to find out what happened...

Thank you. It seems that I had two big booboos with this part of my post. 1) Sorry about all those question marks: It looks like my cut and paste job didn't go the way I planned. 2) I messed up and switched the old and new code in my post, but it looks like you caught my screw-up. The recent snapshot (20090531) has it right. *Don't change it back!* :)

Thank you,
