I am my own boss, have being doing this for 3-4 years, and have what has proven to be a robust, adaptable code base. It hasn't required any major overhauls, and has stood up well faced with some very unexpected client requests, changes and modules. *I* personally find my coding style is easy to maintain, easy to read, etc etc, having spent hundreds of hours working with it. You may not, but that shouldn't imply that yours is the best solution to a problem. Isn't that why the PHP developers gave us MANY different ways to print output? So that each individual can work in a way that best suits them. Justin
