I love PayPal it's by far the easiest and fastest way to pay for anything on the interweb. I got a funny email from them - see it below. PayPal
 
Dear Mark Law, During a recent review of our records, we discovered that the fee charged on some credit card funded payments to your PayPal Personal account in the period from October 2006 and February 2007 was overcharged. We have corrected our systems so that this will not occur again. The fee charged on domestic payments was overcharged by $0.10c. The fee charged on cross border was overcharged by 1%. We will credit your account in the next few days with a payment that represents a refund to you of the difference between the fees charged and the correct fee. We apologise for this error. Please contact our Customer Services Centre on 1800 073 263 if you have any questions in relation to the detail of this payment. Yours sincerely PayPal Australia Pty Limited.

Thanks PayPal I'll take a week off week then :)

Scrolling divs and horizontal lists

I've been trying to create a horizontal scrolling div tag with images displayed by using a list. I just couldn't manage to do it though and it's terribly frustrating. I'm going to have to use a table - woe betide me! Anyway the good news is that I found a very elegant method of creating a simple gallery with lovely code - alistapart.com/articles/imagegallery . If anyone can tell me why horizontal lists don't stretch across a horizontally scrolling div - then please let me know.
