Guess I need to give a bit more context. The code below is used to update the database. It is run when a form with multiple records is submitted. The array $product_code contains the codes of the products and $seq the order they are to be displayed. for Example:- $product_code[1] = "ER", $seq[1] = 10 $product_code[2] = "TY", $seq[1] = Unititialised Problem is if the user blanks out the $seq field the element of the array douse not seem to be set. if ( $action == "Save" ) { $count = count( $product_code ); for( $index=1; $index <= $count; ++$index ) { if ( isset( $seq[$index]) ) { $seq = "'".$seq[$index]."'"; } else { $seq = "NULL"; } echo( "update products ". "set seq=$seq ". "where code='".$product_code[$index]."'" ); } $action = "list"; } I get the followig error:- Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 3 in d:\wwwroot\cultureshop\list_products.php on line 412 At 17:19 08/04/2003 -0600, Rob Adams wrote: >"Ben Edwards" <ben@videonetwork.org> wrote in message >news:5.1.1.6.2.20030408235826.0344e170@mail.videonetwork.org... > > I am trying to see if elements of a number indexed array are set, i.e. > > something like:- > > > > if ( isset( $seq[$index]) ) { > > echo $seq[$index]."<br>"; > > } > >The only error I get when running this is when $index is undefined.
