    Intersection of Line witha aPlane

    Hi,

    I have a POINT at (Xc,Yc,Zc) and another POINT at (X,Y,Z).
    I have to connect these points and extend the line so that it intersects the x-y plane and compute the intersection point (X1,Y1,0). Can anybody help me with the code..

    Thanks,
    Pradeep

    Create a vector using those two points and find the t where z is 0.
    "Can't" and "shouldn't" are two totally separate things.

    All questions should be answered. All answers should be true. That is why I post.
