[quote]I have to agree with Joe. The first method suggested seems kind of amateur-ish. If there will not always be 3 images, then this method is definitley NOT the 'right' way'.
Why create a dynamic application the uses static values like this? [/quote] what the hell are u talking about? u say my way uses static images? getting info from file fields the last time i can recall isnt "static", joes example used "static" images why dont u actually look at my code and u will see exactly why it wouldnt crash if the image count was less then the available fields. im no pro but please know what the hell ur talking about before u call someone "amateur-ish" (i learned that the hard way lol) joe is a great coder who i respect but we were talking about 2 completely diffent parts of the process ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: Scott Stroz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: cf-talk@houseoffusion.com Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2005 08:38:21 -0500 >I have to agree with Joe.
