Wubi : Permission Denied

I am investigating an issue with Wubi and trying to find a solution.

Issue
Using a CD installation of Ubuntu(karmic), installing Wubi fails with a "Permission Denied".

Possible Solutions
Download the latest Wubi from their site as well as getting the latest Ubuntu iso image and then install from a folder. (See comment) (See Wiki Guide Entry)

Make sure appdata has write permission

Web Design : Advanced Lessons

I have added another chapter to my "Web Design Course" and this is an early release for the benefit of my current students eager to learn more.

It starts to teach the hidden features of CSS of making sites more functional and interactive with Javascript Widgets.

I may expand on this chapter a little later.....
