Tom, I tried your approach. It works well. Just wondering though: is there a way to strip spaces from a template that has been called? My example of a URL and QUERY and DISPLAY was a pretty simple one... if this was a much more complicated (involved) template, it seems there must be a way to "STRIP" the spaces from this result. Thoughts?
