2 rules of programers' email lists (in no particular order): 1) the longer you futz about trying to make something work, the sooner you'll realise your dumb error just after posting a cry for help. 2) Always, Always, ALWAYS try your own simplified code before posting. Sorry, I was using variables inside of a terniary block and I just realised I had them backward, so the text was being changed to ... the same thing. No wonder google wasn't giving me anything.
