No I got through hello world tutorial in the guide fine. What I'm after is better information on how to use the various elements and their functions. The general idea for the script I want to build is to create a script that can: a) Import information in from a database (this is a VB problem which I've solved) b) Be able to format various members of the body copy such as tables etc. It was here that I ran into problems trying to decipher and understand how to use the various elements and what values they took. So I was just wondering if anyone knew of any good resources I could have at hand to help me. Similar in idea to programming with an idiots guide next to you.
