Is there a way to tell if a function has been called that has resulted in a call to the same function?We have an in-house CRM app that has a function that draws a tabbed panel on a screen... BUT if there are sub-sub-tabbed panels we want to invert the tab colors and panel colors... So... DrawSubTab($Set) - Black on White Content DrawSubTab($Set) - White on Black Content DrawSubTab($Set) - Black on White Content DrawSubTab($Set) - Black on White Content Etc... I suppose I could rewrite EVERY call to the function with a recursion count like DrawSubTab($Set,$DepthCount+1) but that would be a MASSIVE commit... whereas if the function can determine itself... All that said I can't think of a good way to do it without a bastardized global variable that track "how deep" we are and there is something that bothers me about that approach... Unless that really is the easiest way. Thanks in advance! Matt
If the CRM app uses a browser, then it sounds like a problem that could be solved via css -- parent/child relationships.
