"<br>"; echo ++$var . "<br>"; ?> also, i don't know of anything in the php.ini that would turn this short hand off. seems unlikely that there is. chris. * i'm not exactly sure how the compiler determines when to post increment, but i think i'm correct. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
