Also, || means OR and I suspect you mean && which means AND. Why? Go through the logic and you'll see that no matter what $type is, one of the 3 inequalities will be true and since you use an || the entire if statement will evaluate to true. Not what you want. It might be easier to edit and follow your code if you rewrite as: if ( ! in_array( $type, array( 'add', 'edit', 'delete' ) ) ) { } -- Steve Werby President, Befriend Internet Services LLC http://www.befriend.com/
