Just tried it and it worked great. NOW, is there a way that I can't make the button switch images so it looks like the button is getting
pushed down when it gets clicked?

Thanks Ben - this answered a couple of questions and supplied just the code I needed.

Thank, bookmarking this page. I just used this method, and it seems to be working fine!

I have seen it. It looks rather dinky. *whispers* His girlfriend doesn't really see the point in it...

I used to carry around a similar, though slightly larger metal bottle - probably a Sigg; I got it for a D of E expedition many years ago. It was indeed functional, but now I'm happy to just re-use mineral water bottles (my ex-flatmate left three big 0.75 litre ones) and they're lighter, which is a boon if you cycle up a hill to get to work. And cheap to replace when you lose them.

Thank you very much, so preoccupied with my code that it would have taken me a while to figure it out.

Chortle. I didn't know you wrote so well. I don't know the techy details, but it's obvious that MySpaz has been trying to catch up on Facebook's functionality.

You should have a new media column...

Forgot to mention that! It's 0.6 litres, but the oval shape makes it deceptively slim so it doesn't feel like I'm carrying a pint around in my bag.

How big is your Sigg? :-)
