Remember that was it looks like on the page may be nothing like it really is.If you are running 4.x, grep is a much easier way to do this:[text]accountnum=[grep search=([0-9]*)[- ]([0-9]*)[- ]([0-9]*)[- ] ([0-9]*)&replace \1\2\3][creditnumber][/grep][/text][setheader cart=[cart]]accountnum=[accountnum][/setheader]One advantage with the above is that if the user type spaces instead of dashes, it will still work. Also, if they typed no spaces, the '*' will grab the whole thing and stick it in \1.Johnp.s. you should also not need the [interpret] at all; [creditnumber] will be displayed correctly as long as it was passed correctly.-- John Peacock Director of Information Research and Technology Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group 4720 Boston Way Lanham, MD 20706 301-459-3366 x.5010 fax 301-429-5747------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
