in reference to "Building a Members Area" artical

First I apologize for posting this here as well as in the thread dedicated to the artical but I didn't get an answer to my last post in there so I also posted this here.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After my last post, and cause of the fact that nobody posted any reply to it I decided to start it from scratch again. While doing the "GetData" function I noticed something unusaul in the code

PHP Code:


		
			
if($FieldNames[0] != '') 

     $s = sizeof($FieldNames);

else

     $s = 0;

     $s = 3 + $s;

     for($i = 0; $i <= $s; $i++)

     $arrRet[] = '';

this if and else statement doesn't have "{" or "}" I am guessing that could be part of the cause of the error (if not the whole cause). But when I looked in the support files I noticed that the code didn't have the brackets either. Was this an error or am I just not as close to being an intermidete user of php as I thought I was

Is the code indented that way in the original file? If so, it may be the problem, as it seems that this if/else block would need the opening and closing braces; however, if the code is meant to be:

PHP Code:


		
			
if($FieldNames[0] != '') 

     $s = sizeof($FieldNames);

else

     $s = 0;

$s = 3 + $s;

for($i = 0; $i <= $s; $i++)

     $arrRet[] = '';

Then you wouldn't need the braces, as they are just single-line if/else statements. My suggestion would be to try placing the braces, and see if there are any immediate effects.

$s = 3 + $s;

for($i = 0; $i <= $s; $i++)

     $arrRet[] = '';

when you only have one line on an if, else, while,for statment, you dont need the curley braces. So

PHP Code:


		
			
if($FieldNames[0] != '') 

{

     $s = sizeof($FieldNames);

}

becomes

PHP Code:


		
			
if($FieldNames[0] != '') 

     $s = sizeof($FieldNames);
