Hi Greg,
It would be fantastic to be able to see this as I have been really impressed
with the Omniweb stuff and now use it to identify and fix problems with the
dynamically generated pages in our site.
Even if you aren't able to share the code itself a general description of
how it was and/or links to any reference materials that you used would be
great.
Top stuff.
Cheers,
Matt

Now that someone has actually expressed an interest, I'll ask around.
