	SelectedTab = Tree.GetSelectedNode("Favorites_Panel");
	TabDataTable = Tree.GetNode("Favorites_Panel", SelectedTab);
	TabText = TabDataTable.Text
if SelectedTab then
	Tree.RemoveNode("Favorites_Panel", SelectedTab);
	FavCount = Tree.GetChildCount("Favorites_Panel", "0");
for node=1, FavCount do
	FavDataTable = Tree.GetNode("Favorites_Panel", node);
	Url = FavDataTable.Data

I highlighted your problem in red and below is the fix

INIFile.DeleteValue("AutoPlay\\Docs\\favorites.ini", Name, Url)

thanks alot but it doesnt delete from ini file !!!

[TimeSurfer]

very odd it worked for me, ill look into it jack and get back wit you

[TimeSurfer]

your right jack it doesnt work everytime i just tried it again and no go [must be a bug cause its intermittent at best] but here's my workaround [shorter code too hope you dont mind ]

Selected = Tree.GetSelectedNode("Favorites_Panel");
SelProps = Tree.GetNode("Favorites_Panel", Selected);
if SelProps then
  Name = SelProps.Text
  Url = SelProps.Data
  INIFile.DeleteSection("AutoPlay\\Docs\\favorites.ini", Name);
  Tree.RemoveNode("Favorites_Panel", Selected);
end

will remove from tree and ini [granted if your making favs for a browser you should make it create the section in the ini file as its added.]

thanks alot TimeSurfer

the code i posted above is for your remove button.

here is the new code for your edit button. i also added in error checking and such so that way you dont get null data [sent in a pm also]

Selected = Tree.GetSelectedNode("Favorites_Panel");
SelProps = Tree.GetNode("Favorites_Panel", Selected);
if SelProps then
  Name = SelProps.Text
  Url = SelProps.Data
  INIFile.DeleteSection("AutoPlay\\Docs\\favorites.ini", Name);
  NewName = Dialog.Input("Edit Favorite - Enter a name", "Please enter the name for the favorite: "..Name, "", MB_ICONQUESTION);
  if NewName ~= "CANCEL" then
    NewSite = {}
    NewSite.Text = NewName
    if NewName == "" then
      Dialog.Message("Error", "You must designate a name for your favorite, it cannot be blank.", MB_OK, MB_ICONEXCLAMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);
      NewName = Dialog.Input("Edit Favorite - Enter a name", "Please enter the name for the favorite: "..Name, "", MB_ICONQUESTION);
    end
    NewUrl = Dialog.Input("Edit Favorite - Specify the address", "Please enter a url address for: "..NewName, Url, MB_ICONQUESTION);
    if NewUrl ~= "CANCEL" then
      NewSite = {}
      NewSite.Text = NewName
      NewSite.Data = NewUrl
      if NewUrl ~= "" then
        Tree.SetNode("Favorites_Panel", Selected, NewSite);
      else
        Dialog.Message("Error", "URL must be defined and cannot be blank to add favorite.", MB_OK, MB_ICONEXCLAMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);
        NewUrl = Dialog.Input("Edit Favorite - Specify the address", "Please enter a url address for: "..NewName, Url, MB_ICONQUESTION);
      end
    end
  end
  if NewSite.Text ~= "" and NewSite.Data ~= "" then
    INIFile.SetValue("AutoPlay\\Docs\\favorites.ini", NewSite.Text, "Url", NewSite.Data);
  end
end

enjoy
