I can't believe it. That was it. An idiotic typo. <snip> I wouldn't stress too much - happens to me all the time (sigh) and (apparently) it happens to the best of us - but I am not qualified to comment on the veracity of that statement :). For future reference, during testing, you can set your error reporting levels ( i think) in php.ini to output a notice regarding a variable that does not exist - would have helped you spot the error! I normally use the Zend debugger which does quite a good job of telling me that I am an idiot :) Rory
