yeah my head was broken for a while all I could remember was innerHTML 
and document.writes.  In fact I thought the blink element was a good 
idea, added a busy almost black background to my site, <centre>'d all my 
bright red +7 text, started coding cgi in perl all while looking for my 
analogue mobile phone to call my mates for a pre-fatherhood piss-up and 
downloading slackware disksets, yes it was 1997 all over again for me;-)
