Template question...

Ummm...I'd rather explicitely resolve the scope in this case (that is prefix with std:: as needed) because the code above is likely to reside in a header. The 'using' bloats 'list' into the global namespace, which I find rather unpretty.

@YSG:

...
while((curr != stop) && ((* curr) < item))
...

Who is 'stop' ? You mean 'end', don't you?

Ahh... that's right, thanks dude . I'll just post all of my source files as well as the error output, it should give a better view of what I'm trying to do.
