At a glance I don't see any syntax errors so I'll point out how

that is wrong. Do a quick search to find out what the type= should be.

 

Also, this is [b]obviously[/b] not an HTML question which is why I'm having a hard time imagining why you put this thread in the HTML Help forum.

This thread is more than a year old. Please don't revive it unless you have something important to add.
