I seem to remember seing someone use a abreaviated form of a if/them/else of the type that can be used in java. It was something like if ( a=b ) ? a=1 ; a=2;

$a = ($a == $b) ? 1: 2; which meand: if $a is equal to $b then set $a to 1 otherwise set $a to 2. that is equivalent to: if ($a == $b) { $a = 1; } else { $a = 1; } btw: its called the 'tertiary' syntax (because its the third form)

Anybody know what the correct syntax is? Ben
