note r.joseph Wonderful post [Ovid] - just added to my favs list. For someone who had the great misfortune a while back of inheriting a large, ill-maintained and astrociously coded website, I know what you mean and this post really highlights some of the main points that go into fixing it.<br><br> I also have to agree heartily with the replies, although I would like to add something. I find sometimes that it actually helps, with particularily insubordinate code, to take part of it out of the main file (say, a sub) and put it into another script that has major error-checking, lots of warnings and what not, and then test it from there. Sometimes this will yield a solution very quickly, and other times it has quickly allowed me to see what was wrong and what needed to be recoded.<br><Br> Just thought I'd offer a quick idea...great job again!<br><br> <font color="#222255">r.</font> <font color="#333366">j</font> <font color="#444477">o</font> <font color="#555588">s</font> <font color="#666699">e</font> <font color="#7777aa">p</font> <font color="#8888bb">h</font><br> <i>"Violence is a last resort of the incompetent"</i> - Salvor Hardin, <i>Foundation</i> by Issac AsimovW 79261 79261
