super trivial and im embarrassed to ask...

[sid]

ok - i was thinking about getting a new username for that... but somebody please explain to me real quick how this construction works exactly...

$input ? $width = $input : $width = "100%";

as far as i thought this means as much as

if ($input) {
    $width = $input;
}
else {
    $width = "100%";
}

where am i wrong there?

merci...

Think you need to use isset. On newer versions, it throws a notice when you don't

isset($input)?$width=$input:$width="100%";

No need for a new nick. I ask a lot of questions I think I should know the answer to. Course, ya can never know everything...

hehe - yeqh i know... were all a big family anyways ;-)

still - your suggestion returns an empty value (in case $input is not set)

Hrmmm....worked for me man. Tried this

<?php
$input = "something";
isset($input)?$width=$input:$width="100%";
echo $width;
?>

And it returned "something", then I tried

<?php
isset($input)?$width=$input:$width="100%";
echo $width;
?>

And it returned "100%"

Maybe somewhere else in your code?
