are you the same Nathan that has been here before? the one who drinks beer and hosts with JH?

You have to use the variable between all operators like zaboss wrote.. 

If intVariable = 1 OR intVariable = 2 AND intVariable2 = 5 THEN

Yes correct SemiKolon. I tried a while back to change my email address in my profile, but must have incorrectly entered it as it does not send me an activation email - so I am unable to log into my old account.

Re Beer - yep I drink loads - especially after Greece winning the football last night!

RE coding -

if strCategory="Corfu - Greece" then

(works fine)

 If strCategory="Corfu" or strCategory="Site Admin" then

(throws an error)

Not sure why, and I cannot tell you which error it is throwing as all error codes display my site map page!

Any help would be very welcome.

Nathan

Thanks - my fault sorry - the problem is not with the expression, but the coding run when the if statement is true! - Thanks for all you help though - again I owe everyone beers!

Cheers
