Hi there, How can I do something like this: [snip - theoretical code] if( isset($step) ) echo step.$step() ) [/snip] $step would be an int (I would check that before) and then I would have

sorts of functions like step1(), step2() . etc. Any ideas? Thomas

What about switch / case? switch($step) { case 1: step1(); break; case 2: step2(); break; default: defaultStep(); break; }

i thought that would be too easy ;-)
