[FADCA] More on X.121 address's on the web site

[Freeman Crosby]

Hi Chuck & Russ,

Thanks for the input, however I'm still not sure what is wanted on 
the web site and where to get it from the database.

I don't make database changes, only parse out the existing data, 
create and upload the web pages.

My previous message indicated what was in the "Mnemoni" field at the 
moment and I see no other database field that contains addresses. The 
Mnemoni field seems to have several types of data in it.

If "Mnemoni" is the field I should use to make the web site X.121 web 
page field I'd assume I'd use the 6 number addresses in it and skip 
the rest as I said in my last message.

Russ, when you get home and have a chance please fill me in on what 
and where to get the data for the new field on the web site.
