MSNBC News likes to use a javascript called "poptext code v. 3.0" by Brenden West, to create something they call a "Fact File" which looks like an expandable table embedded within a html page, they use a simple horizontal menu at top of the table with links to that particular Fact File's "facts" which then open within the table resizing it length wise to fit the length of that particular "fact".
I have searched the web for Brenden West and have had no luck finding him. I tried saving the source code from the MSNBC website but the file does not contain the first half of the JavaScript.
Here is the link to the current MSNBC page where they are using this javascript. The fact file is in the middle of the page and is on Scuds and Arrows.

Any help tracking Brenden West down or this script would be greatly appreciated as I think this feature is fantastic and would love to use it.
