See you all next year. Here's a short update.
I've been able to get drupal installed on my WIMP dev server but can't seem to get 'multi-site working.
I've gotten drupal installed on my Shared host ISP but not quite working right.
Hoping to get back to more developement soon.
Right now I've bogged down deep in a client site's e-commerce site which for no apparent reason stopped taking credit cards three days ago.
Have a happy and healthy holiday season.
