This may sound a little obvious, but are you _sure_ you've got CAB.OVL in 
your CAB folder. I ask this because the updates don't include this, as 
it's written by a different author to CAB itself. It was included in the 
WWW130 set-up, but if you've got CAB1.2b from the website you'll need to 
get hold of the ovl seperately. BTW this needs to be run _alongside_ the 
CAB_JPEG.OVL, which is only for jpeg handling.

I think Flinny's about to unleash another WWW package any day now, with 
much improvement, especially with forms handling. Try checking out the ovl 
situation first, but keep your eyes peeled for a new www release (it's 
probably going to be called WWW131, but I'm not sure).

Good luck

Andrew
