I agree, the code is easier to read if each instruction is placed on a separate line (See below)
Anyway, I notice that your first statement appears to be a fragment of a string assignment- please post the entire line. Your last line appears to have the same problems. Please re-post your message with more code included. Second, do not use $numartist as both an array value and a result code. Use two different variable names. There might be your problem. -----Original Message----- From: DL Neil [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 21, 2002 1:44 PM To: Barry Rumsey; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] theme header query By what do you mean code should be readable ? =look at the code you've quoted below.
