Hi Guys, Thanks for the improvements! One issue I've had for awhile is how do I search for all sets in a given year? If I type in 1980 (as a year) for example, I get set 1980 (Elves) made in '91. Thanks, Mark (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)

(...) Hmm. I see an en-dash there (not a hyphen and not an em-dash but an en-dash). That doesn't show up for you? What browser/OS were you viewing with? It's using entity – there, which is kind of a Microsoft-ism in character set terms, but I (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.admin.database)

Looks great! One bug and one suggestion: (1) The bug is that there is a missing range indicator at the top of a listing, e.g. go to (URL) and follow the quick link to trains.

(...) I guess that's an issue if the frame names are common things like "main" and "display" and "gunkie_foo". :-) What happens when the frame name contains, say, the site's name as a prefix? (...)

(...) Except that, due to my insane hatred for frames (;-), I'll actually break out of 'em and use d&d browsing instead, since Netscape will remember frame names across several browser windows.

An example is to have one window open for a TOC, and another window open for the chapters; to change chapters you drag the hyperlink from the TOC window to the chapter window.
