I am having problems putting an html string into a variable to create an array of strings. something like this: $stringarray[] = array(); $i = 0; while ( $i < 6 ){ $stringarray[$i] = "<table cellspacing=\"0\"><tr><td>".$this->differentarray[0] [0]."</td></tr></table>"; } When I echo $stringarray[1] it comes up empty... Is there a special trick to get a string into an array or even store one as a variable. thanks, /Tim -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
