thanks it's appreciated.

not to be a pain but why do you recommend putting all curly brackets under the statement?

well, it's the vb3 coding standard, and also a well know coding standart in real programming languages like C++.

it makes the code better readable, and especially makes it easier to find if you have missed a bracket

i'll have to try and get used to it, it's just as i'm learning it, i'm being taught to do it

PHP Code:

if ( ) {
} else {

} 


(which i find alot easier to read)

rather than

PHP Code:

if ()
}
else
{

} 


arghh feels like such a waste of space.

The way I've always coded, I've done this:

PHP Code:

if (condition)
{
.....
} else {
......
} 


Bit of both.
