texte = > [!] Have to hide this to match [showif > [math]creditOK[/math]=1] above [/!] > [hideif [net30]=checkbox][/showif][/hideif] >Parker,you submitted so much material to wade thru that I didn't read very much of it, but I think what you may be running into is that contexts have to be wrapped around each other in their entirety (I think). I don't feel I am expert enough to speak definatively but in my experience, so far, you cannot end one context in the middle of another. Think of them as wrappers . In the snip above you have - [showif num=1] blah [hideif field=check][/showif][/hideif] ...I don't think that is valid syntax. I think the [hideif] has to be completely embedded within the [showif], or vice versa. Again I am not an expert, but I know when I have previously tried to wrap the opening and closing parts of a context (like a [search])- each with its own [showif] - it did not work. I had to wrap the entire [search] [/search] with the [showif] [/showif] and create another whole set to account for another condition.If someone else can explain it better, or correct me, please do ;-)-John ------------------------------------------------------------- Brought to you by CommuniGate Pro - The Buzz Word Compliant Messaging Server.
