(...) Or, as an alternative to right-clicking, you can also drag'n'drop part-links to a second browser window. Assuming you have enough space on your screen. For me, dragging tends to be easier to remember dragging than right-clicking. Steve (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Yeah, no cookies. The only time I've touched any cookie code is in pnauth.cgi, and that's only retrieving a cookie already set. Steve (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I'm not sure I'm understanding what you wrote, let me double-check. "3rd party cookie blocking" is like preventing google.com from retrieving a cookie set by amazon.com? If that's so, it's very odd -- the code in pnauth.cgi is not doing (...) (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

You are given three 3d cooridates. This makes a triangle in 3d space. The z values may all be three different, so it may be rotated in almost*) any direction.
