yes, I'd like to compare what he says versus the actual.
Unfortunately, I can't even put anything in the frameset...he's simply using
my client's link to the source.
Perhaps the best solution is to change the way he interacts with us.
I had heard someone mention once that there was a way to watch a site and
see what errors it throws, 404s et al.
Did I dream this?
