This did fix the problem but I am amazed that $s%$d=0 would be interpereted as a statement assigning d to 0 since there is some other stuff in front of d... I would think that would produce an error at compile time since $s%$d is an illegal variable name. Normally when my php script errors at compile time nothing will display to the screen.

You still have not correctly puzzled out what $s % $d = 0 is doing... The = operator takes precedence, and $d is set to 0. But why? According to the manual, the modulus operator has precedence over the equals! So shouldn't this expression resolve to:

($s % $d) = 0 which gives an error? -- _____________________ Myron Turner http://www.room535.org http://www.bstatzero.org http://www.mturner.org/XML_PullParser/
