Back again.

Installed my html site flawlessly with auth(e) and it all works perfectly - including external links!! - thanks.

Only 'issue' was that the button in the menu wais titled "Auth...." with a string of obscure characters following.

Finally found the FAQ for the module covers this - tho isn't exactly clear.. and now the button title reflects the content. :)

Still thanks for the help... seriously!... and now it's back on with trying to sort content out... gawd.
