Sounds like your functions look like this: Menu() { echo $link1; echo $link2; } when they need to look like this: Menu() { $ret .= $link1; $ret .= $link2; return $ret; } Basically assign EVERYTHING that is supposed to be "echo"'d and then return that into your next function. --Joe On Mon, Dec 04, 2000 at 02:21:17PM -0700, webmaster@ipo.vpaa.asu.edu wrote: > Greetings, > > Got a tiny problem that I'm unable to figure out.
