What has your host has disabled?

hmm... what do you mean? Typically I write my code examples in a text editor, and by default I use an indent level of four literal spaces.

im not sure what they have disabled but i found i got an error when using the complete URL, i usually use the tab but i cannot use it here, aslo are there any good tutorials on correctly embeding and indenting php in html? sorry fo going a little off topic...

This thread is a somewhat off-topic continuation of Mysql and checkboxes.

What exactly did you try and what error did you get?

That's because web browsers typically use the tab to move from one form control to another. Writing your code examples in a text editor sidesteps this problem entirely, is safer in the event of a forum glitch.

Not that I know of, but the general idea is the same as in all programming languages descended in basic syntax structure from C (or which requires indentation, e.g., Python).

It also helps because it makes it easier to run the code to make sure it shows what it is supposed to show, in the event of a poster glitch.
