Never know unless you ask right?

So far I have been somewhat disappointed in CSS. That probably has more 
to do with how I've tried to impliment it rather than any failing in 
CSS. Templates may not be a bad idea assuming that I can get the hang of 
it *and* I understand what you mean. Do you have any existing samples of 
what something like that would look like or a more expansive spec?

I don't know about changing all requests but there are a few that I am 
looking at changing the behavior of especially as it leaves uglier and 
uglier looking URLs when viewing multiple listings.

Now that certainly looks like work ;). Are you using FreeRealty similar 
to Jon's Open Auto scripts? I've never even looked at the Auto scripts 
but could be talked into it if the demand/usage is there. Having said 
that... this would be something to think about.
