    Yes, those fields are already there in that restricted horizontal space, 
and I would like to continue to use them with an added 
'verification/selection' process.

    Your thoughts/suggestions and those examples of Jeff North will help me 
to resolve this issue (and I hope without getting bogged down too deeply)

    Have you visited the site and looked at the current work. I'd hate to 
change the whole thing, but would like to add a bit of help.

The last I heard was the St. Pierre and Miquelon were a part of France,  and 
our Senior Park is used only by 'freezing' Canadians and Americans, and 
those hardy permanent residents who 'fry' here at 115 degrees F during the 
summer.

Thanks for the suggestions !
