OK, what happens if you try this:
Code:
<vb:if condition="!in_array('XX', array('AL', 'AZ'), true)">
<vb:if condition="$show['guest']"><div class="padtop">
stuff to go in here
</div></vb:if></vb:if>
or this:
Code:
<vb:if condition="!in_array('AL', array('AL', 'AZ'), true)">
<vb:if condition="$show['guest']"><div class="padtop">
stuff to go in here
</div></vb:if></vb:if>
