   OK; a bit of disclosure AKA clarity:
   Am not going to have various pages, each in a different language.
   Do not care about currency because (so far) i do not publish pricing, 
and if i eventually decide to show pricing strategy, it all will be in 
dollars.

   Short version of what i have: <script language="JavaScript"> function 
snag() { {document.dataholder.gottit.value="someHTMLpage.html"; } }
document.onmousemove=snag; </script>
<!-- this is the only way so far that i can get working -->
<body> <form name="dataholder" action="">
  <table border=0>
   <tr>  <!-- gotta move mouse to get info to following  -->
    <td><input type="text" size=19 name="gottit" value="Please move 
mouse!"></td>
   </tr>
  </table>
  </form>
   ...
   BUT what i really want is to have the HTML part "automatically" 
call/launch that someHTMLpage.html file/program/page with NO click and 
NO requirement for a mousemove.
   Seems that ONLY document.onmousemove will work inside JS.

   Help??
