thanks, makes some sense.
so now where I have echo, I should have print? or just leave as echo
and add the else and ||?
Could you provide some sample code based on the code I posted
previously by chance??
being new to PHP I am sure I will run into errors for a few days, as is...
that would help me out greatly.
thx,
