Alex,

Well, I forgot that I had to place the directory inside of the
homepage directory (brainfart?).  I moved it and worked for me.

My guess is that the flicker is related to Rev's trying to go find and
activate the web browser.  What's interesting is that the flicker/wait
happens even if the web browser is already active!

Thanks!

Judy
