Sheri,
Thanks for the great links.

Here are a couple for you:
'Everything you ever wanted to know about options but were afraid to ask..' or "Characteristics and Risks of Standard Options" - required reading for anyone trading options + useful glossary.
cboe.com

Another great place for option quotes is to go to the 'mother of all option exchanges' the Chicago Board of Options (CBOE)
cboe.pcquote.com

I like this site for quotes because it shows open interest for each option contract. This is not only useful for showing the number of contracts outstanding, but can also give an indication of potential volume of activity on or before the expiration date of the option. .. Remember 1 contract = 100 shares...

Good Luck!
Ron

Shari,
Thanks for links, will ck out this evening. Perhaps you might be interested in a penny stock DFNL. Last week I bought HNLY on Thurs, sold Friday made 3000. Friday I bought DFNL and expect to make another 3/4000. I just bought some more this am. I expect to sell at 1.50 although upside is probably 5. long term. It's fun and give me extra money to play options. Sandie
