    Yah, I thought so. My "fast" algoritm is, what, 1000x slower? So obviously I missed something important, and missed it pretty badly. <g>

    I'd welcome any advice -- not that this matter for any pressing real project, but just to improve my skills.

    Thanks, browserUK, look forward to your post....
