Thank you for the prompt reply.
1. Got any urls to what the "standard discussion web" looks
like and what the pros and cons are?
2. Someone claimed FrontPage (2003?) had a "chat" module
that could be built into a website? Any truth to that? Even
in a Windows-only environment? I couldn't find any
reference to it.
