Hi. You've got my entry on Multiple Remote Controls to sub. Just thought I'd drop by and ask if you could let me have a look at it when you've finished and *before* you boot it back upstairs for the final going-over. Promise I won't moan, second guess the process, question every tiny change or do anything that would otherwise slow the process down - I'd just like the chance to check it so we're BOTH happy with what's going on the front page with both our IDs on it. Please?
Cheers!
H.

I've done it now. The only major change is taking out the heading 'introduction', that and the rest are simply style changes to fit in with the guide.
Have a look and let me know if you are happy for me to send it off.
Actually, it's quite good you want to look at it, as I'm a new sub ed, if you're happy it will be a good boost. If you're not, I'll learn where I'm going wrong before it becomes a habit.
good entry btw.

Good job!
Two suggestions, which I'd probably have put in myself if the thing hadn't been rec'd so quickly...
1. Either footnote the term 'IR' with the explanation 'infra-red' or simply replace it with the words.
2. just before it says "(Dolby 5.1 Enhanced, say)" make the words 'surround sound' to a link to this:

Other than that, sterling work, thanks!

Not something *you* say very often, judging by your homespace...
