Bastien,
Thanks for your reply (and on the weekend, no less!).
I went back and looked and the function does return only "YES" or "NO" so that wasn't
the problem. What I found to be the problem was that my while loop inside the IF
clause was running no matter what. So what I did was put the while loop in it's own
function and voila! no more problems. PHP is funny. It seems to trip on it's own
shoestrings sometimes. (either that or I didn't RTFM) :)
Cheers,
Karen

hard to say without the code for the function...what is returned by the
fuction determines if the code runs, right? Are you sure the code is
returning "YES"? Maybe post the code for the function
