Just noticed the following in latest Filemaker News
FileMaker has released FileMaker Pro 9.0v3 and FileMaker Pro 9.0v3
Advanced, available now via a downloadable update. The 9.0v3 update
provides compatibility with Mac OS X Leopard, and allows Instant Web
Publishing to work.
Don't know if that means it didn't work *at all* before...:-)
