The begin var exist ? You are receiving the NOTICE because the var begin is not instantiated. For a complete debug send me a short db drop (without data if no data needed) and the xenosetup.php and with other related files. -- ------------------------------------------------- Cristian MARIN InterAKT Online (www.interakt.ro) +4021 411 2610 cristic@interakt.ro "Fulco Of Scarborough" <fulco@fulco.net> wrote in message 000301c32cf9$c715a830$dad2fea9@master">news:000301c32cf9$c715a830$dad2fea9@master...
