Re: <al-for> help!

Hi,

I've been playing with my pages, and found that the problem is  
specific to it running Apache on my iBook.  I've tested the same cgi/ 
template on a Debian machine, using a Twisted-based web server, and  
even on my iBook using a CGIHTTPServer based server.  Both returned  
the correct number of entries in the dictionary.

Thanks to all that responded!

Regards

J
