    I noticed that you have up to date Indices for NYSE, Nasdaq, and EAFE, etc. I think it would be useful to have a similar feature but instead show the five funds. I realize that the I Fund follows the EAFE and the other funds have theircounterparts. Simply showing the up-to-date EAFE percentages labeled the I fund and theWilshire 4500 index as the S Fund, etcwould be useful.

    What do you think?

    For some reason there is a big charge (like $1200 / yr each) for quotes of theDow andS&P 500. I used to get theWilshire 4500 but it was disabled. They probably also wanted money.

    Maybe some day, if/when I make this a pay site.

    Let's not throw the "pay site" bomb just yet. I was just curious.

    I have a strong computer background so I know it's feasible and would take relatively little effort. I've seen PHP scripts that will grab stock quotes and information from Yahoo Finance, but I do not know web site policies. Does anyone know if Yahoo allows other web sites to use their information if referenced appropriately?

    Obviously, I wouldn't wantto do anything unethical. I'd also be willing to help out implementing any features.

    Thanks! I might take you up on that Brett. I am looking to make some improvements and I may need some help. I'll contact you if I need some help.

    I noticed you have the charts from Yahoo. I like 'em. When did you get them?
