Actually... how does the delay() function work anyhow, because I have noticed that on different computers, with different cpu speeds.. the delay time does appear to vary (though not enough to make me think it was machine dependant) ... I have something BETTER than chocolate. þ Riker -*- SabreEDIT v1.72a+ [STS97] --- Ezycom V1.48g0 01fa0167* Origin: Milky Way, Langley, BC [604] 532-4367 (1:153/307) SEEN-BY: 396/1 632/0 371 633/260 267 270 371 634/397 635/506 728 639/252 SEEN-BY: 670/218 @PATH: 153/307 8086 800 140/1 396/1 633/260 635/506 728 633/267 |
