Also, you need to use == or === to check for equality. = is the assignment operator, and attempts to assign the value of the expression on the right to the variable on the left. Also, you should quote any strings. So: if ($biz == 'my_business' && $id_num == '2') { . . . } ...etc. Hope this helps, Torben -- Torben Wilson <torben@php.net> +1.604.709.0506 http://www.thebuttlesschaps.com http://www.inflatableeye.com http://www.hybrid17.com http://www.themainonmain.com -----==== Boycott Starbucks! http://www.haidabuckscafe.com ====-----
