As a comma is not valid numeric data, it and everything after, will be ignored. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.biz Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * ------------------------------------------ Search the list archives before you post http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general ------------------------------------------ /* "It may be that our role on this planet is not to worship God but to create him." -Arthur C.
