Can you be more specific? I'll rub my crystal monitor here and imagine...1) You're using an [include] inside a math expression, and you use BBEdit to create the include file 2) You've nested the [include]s really really deep 3) Your included file uses [cart], and for some reason the cart# just doesn't make it throughAnswers: 1) BBEdit has the annoying habit of adding an extra carriage return to the end of a file, thus messing up the [math] context because carriage return is illegal 2) Stack space being limited, the [include] just uses up so much that there's none left, and can't execute any more WebDNA 3) Change it to [include file=xx&cart=[cart]]Grant Hulbert, V.P.
