Use strtolower() on all entries from the form, so you can compare them (in lowercase) without worry about whether the user entered "MA", "ma", "Ma", or "mA".

This is what I have now: function calculate_tax($OrderedByState,$ShipState) { global $totalPrice; //tax calculation $taxRate = "0.05"; if ($OrderedByState=="MA" && $ShipState=="MA") { $taxcost=$taxRate*$totalPrice; } else if ($OrderedByState=="MA" && $ShipName != "" && $ShipState!="MA") { $taxcost= "0.00"; } else if ($OrderedByState=="MA" && $ShipState=="") { $taxcost=$taxRate*$totalPrice; } else if ($ShipState=="MA") { $taxcost=$taxRate*$totalPrice; } else { $taxcost= "0.00"; } return $taxcost; } Thanks for any help! -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
