Thank you Paul, I have asked about atutorial on proper code formatting and got back a tutorial that was extremely hard to understand. While lots of people have screamed at me for my coding format no one has supplied an understandable answer. That is until this morning.

Thought that was the best tutorial I could ever get. Short and sweet and oh so easy to understand. I am using HTML_Kit as it has the same features as all the othere editors (color coding and such) but it also has a lot more. I can get plugins for anything I would ever need. Except a formatting tutorial ;) Thank for your help Jennifer "Paul Burney" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > on 4/12/02 11:15 PM, Jennifer Downey at [EMAIL PROTECTED] appended the > following bits to my mbox: > > > I believe it has something to do with the first while statement's closing > > curly bracket placement > > but I can't seem to get it in the right place. > > Hi Jennifer, > > The first thing you should do is properly indent your code.
