I'm not worried about Thomas. He's free to express his advice and opinions -
and now, having heard and evaluated both, I'm free to ignore him.

This truth has escaped me. Obviously, there are Jedi Master ways to code
pages so that they /appear/ to provide two (or more) responses to one HTTP
request. I just thought that those ways were readily known with PHP
examples.

Thanks, I have.
And, you might be interested in the workaround that /I/ concocted, once I
realized the truth about HTTP responses. See Message-ID:
<d0Byv.32651$46(dot)29400(at)fx19(dot)iad> for a working PHP/HTML example that does
what I wanted my page to do. Others might find it helpful, as well
Thanks again
