While this answer functioned, it was obviously fundamentally flawed... : My problem is when creating a logout page.

As a : temporary solution i have added some code to loginstatus.lay, but this : is edging towards including code in the layout files which i dont : want. MVC-ish patterns are good. The problem you've encountered is that code in your main content area may do something that changes the output of entire page (or in your case the top portion of the page). You need to modify your app to first evaluate all code, let it reach its next state, and *then* generate the correct templated output based on the new state. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
