Not sure you've got what I'm saying ... <?php var_dump(255 == '0xff'); var_dump(63 == '077'); var_dump(255 == "0xff"); var_dump(63 == "077"); ?> outputs ... bool(true) bool(false) bool(true) bool(false) Single/double quotes don't come into the issue. -- ----- Richard Quadling "Standing on the shoulders of some very clever giants!"
