Tried that already. It complained it couldn't parse
it. I did not have a DEFAULT filter setup. Should I
have? If so, what should it look like?

Read that. In fact, I think I've read everything on
your site :)

I've read just about that entire DOC. However, I would
really rather use flags(fallback) if possible. It
sounds like thats perfect for what I'm trying to do.
Am I way off base?


I apologize if I'm missing anything, but I've read
just about anything I can get my hands on :)
