A couple things you can try: Dreamweaver MX 2004 is very capable of doing simple DB interactions like the one you're describing. If your form fields are named the same as your DB fields, a click of the button and DW will match them up for you and generate the insert statement. There's a little more to it, in the set up of your development environment, but this is the jist of it. Another thing you can try is, breaking your form up into smaller pages, for more of a 'wizard' interface to the form. This might actually take longer to code, but on the flip side is, greater usability for your users, and dealing with the form in more managable chunks, than it is working with a 1000 line file. --- eric marden http://xentek.net --- -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
