I want to trim any whitepace and check if it is empty in the same line this is not working.

Hi,

try this:

if (isset($_POST['_createcategory']))
{
  $value = trim($_POST['_createcategory']);
  if (empty($value))
  {

Be very careful with empty(). It doesn't do exactly what it says on the tin. For example if your _createcategory POST value contained a zero, the empty() check will fail in the above instance, giving a false result.

Cheers,
