The preceding condition will always return true. <?php $a = 'a'; if ( $a = "C" ) { echo '$a test success'; } $c = 'C'; if ( $c == "C" ) { echo '$c test success'; } ?> This snippet should prove my point. so, I would have to say that the problem is not with the condition, but rather the include file itself. -- Jim Lucas "Some men are born to greatness, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them."

Dan, try adding this to the top of your code: ini_set('error_reporting',E_ALL); If it outputs any errors for you, then you'll know what's up. Also, you don't need a space in your include command. Just type it out as if it were a function: include('complete_save.php');
but include is not a function. it is a Control Structure http://us2.php.net/manual/en/language.control-structures.php imo, the op should not use parentheses when calling it Look here http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php out of all the examples, only one of them shows include being called with parentheses. The one that does use the parentheses is an example of when not to use parentheses. -- Jim Lucas "Some men are born to greatness, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them."
