If you've accidentally missed out a closing brace you'll spot it immediately. It's called the Allman style and has another advantage. Consider: if(condition) { statement } You can comment out the if statement and the braces won't cause an error: //if(condition) { statement } Whereas doing the same with the BSD KNF style that many favour you would hit a problem of mismatched braces: //if(condition){ statement } Thanks, Ash http://www.ashleysheridan.co.uk
