yeah, the multi-user stuff is pretty straight-forward. i've got it all in my head and on paper here. i just would have waited for the weekend, since i didnt want to start a lengthy task when i only have small chunks of time. 1 thing i also noticed that needs to be done, which could perhaps help khaled, is to fix up the html. it's quite sloppy, with quite a bit of tables and so on still remaining. it could make his job a bit easier, if w= e were to take care of it for him...and he wouldn't need to mess with the cod= e at all, but rather develop a nice css based on our markup.
