RE: [mv] if-field error
Minivend [if] statements, in general, do not nest very will. You might
want try changing the outer [if-field] to a regular [if] with a [then].
Your page is right on the verge of (some would say well past) being better
done with a [perl] statement, which is what I would recommend.
