Got the drop down box and everything, but wouldn't send PM till I took him off of it.

Not saying this is the case here, as I do not have rear end access (so to speak!). Both > and < are used in scripting language, which could be used to hack the XI site. Hence they have been banned as standard forum software protocol. Cobra needs to speak with the management to have this update (if I'm correct???).

Fixed now. . Awards
