Andrew,
Thank you for the advice.....I will try making the corrections and
see what happens. I currently use tsWebEditor 2.0 but I am
downloading Zend Studio and will give a shoot.
Over the past few years of coding I have noticed something and am
wondering if anyone else have noticed this too. If a PHP file
becomes to big, parts are ignored. I have had PHP files that are 100
to 300 lines long and are solid code and parts of the code (more
towards the bottom) start to be dropped off. Is it possible that the
server's cache fills up??
