What is the code you're using now? You have a syntax error, but without seeing the code, we are all left to guessing what the problem could be. Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk ----- Reply message ----- From: "Ben Brentlinger" <Ben@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, Oct 31, 2010 03:56 Subject: [PHP] questions about if statements regarding a checkbox To: <php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> I tried that, but I'm getting the syntax error that says "unexpected T_IF". Probably because I'm trying to process this information directly in an email rather letting a mysql database handle the data, which I find harder to set up when writing a script from scratch than it would be to code a php script to send the data in an email.
