The == works with numbers, and the quotes are for strings. I think that the way you have it set up, the number one is returning true when the $variable is defined. respectfully, James -----Original Message----- From: Catriona Wordsworth [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2003 8:03 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
