I need this to say : If row notes is not empty and is alpha echo notes How do I get the is alpha part in here; If (!empty($row['notes'])) { echo(" $trimNotes "); } I tried..... If (IsAlpha($row['notes'])) { echo(" $trimNotes "); } But it broke the whole script. --Terion -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
