I have 25 cities and am currently using the following to set the $toaddress for submitting student pre-registration forms based on the city selected: if ($city == "Calgary") { $toaddress = "abc@emailaddress"; } elseif ($city == "Brooks") { $toaddress = "def@emailaddress"; and so on. Would using switch statements like the following make any appreciable difference? switch ($city) { case"Calgary": $toaddress = "abc@emailaddress"; break; case"Brooks": $toaddress = "def@emailaddress"; break; and so on. Is there a more elegant solution? Thank you for your help, April
