Well if you get your code down to one feed and its still not working send it
again and I will have a go at it.

Thanks, I'll give it a go. I was able to get part of it working once before,
I just wish I remembered how... Though even then, it only worked when the
page first loaded, which I guess sort of defeats the purpose.
