I notice that you're checking $_POST['mort'] but you're echoing $mort, is that your actual code?

That was my observation as well. Is $mort = $POST['mort']; being set somewhere else or not? If not, how is your script supposed to know what value $mort should be? And, what the other guys said. Gary, before you do anything with submitted data you need to process it against strip_tags() and/or htmlentities() at the very least, mysql_real_escape_string() if the data goes to a db. Reese --

I have a form that gives the submitter a choice or either one set of questions, or another. I am still getting the message even if the input was left blank. So on the line below, $msg.= isset($_POST['mort']) ? "The mortgage amount is $mort\n" : " ";
