[javascript ref, wingate, sharing an internet connection]
pae, a well known site to look for java/javascript is

gamelan.com

microsoft and netscape have a lot of good reference material as well. For the netscape stuff (which i am using) look at:

developer.netscape.com

a couple of weeks ago i downloaded a whole book with the title:
"special edition using javascript-online version".
unfortunately, the link

mcp.com

doesnt work anymore, may be you must register now...

[wingate]
you are alrady running a peer-to-peer net...then you really should do the next step and share your internet connection. its easier than you may think. ok ok ...not really.... it took me a lot of effort to find out how to do it. there are many many ways but there is only one which is free. i already mentioned it, its based on 'wingate'.

what is WINAGTE?

WinGate is software designed to allow multiple users simultaneous access to the Internet with only one connection of nearly any type (modem, ISDN,leased line, etc.). WinGate runs on a single Windows 95 or NT computer which does not have to be "dedicated" to the task. WinGate 2.0 can share a single Internet connection with nearly any type of client computer running TCP/IP - and shares access with such popular applications as Netscape Navigator, MS Internet Explorer, Eudora, Netscape Mail, popular telnet and FTP programs, and many, many more.

Wingate is a small software package which is FREE as long as your network consists only of two computers (you must have TCP/IP protocol installed ). wingate is essentially a (simple) proxy server software (sounds more complicated than it really is), so you must take care of the 'port numbers' your internet applications are using behind wingate (this may cause some trouble). look here for more information and for download:

deerfield.com

my experience with wingate is very very good so far. no slow down of my primary computer and the download times on my second computer (behind wingate) is fast as well and cant notice any speed difference.
