You are using a reference to something else with the name $mensagem, but you are not passing the value by reference -- try this: function showError(&$mensagem) // note the '&' before $mensagem { return '<div class="erro">' . $mensagem . '</div>'; } And let me know if that works or doesn't work. (It's kind of a hunch, hard to tell from your code if it will work.) Erik ---- Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H.
