Hence all the format tags in the loop.Why can't you simply convert the data into the proper format after you get it from the form? There's no reason why the form data has to be the exact same data you enter into the db -- but even if there were, having 14 loops with 86400 iterations each is totally outrageous,. There are *far* better and far simpler ways to do this ... ================================ Kenneth Grome, WebDNA Consultant 808-737-6499 http://webdna.net ================================------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
