i don't know where to begin posting code. Here's one snippit

        if ($D::table == /client/i) {
            $sth_clients = $dbh->prepare_cached("select * from client"
+);
            $sth_clients -> execute;
            while (@info = $sth_clients->fetchrow_array) { #make a has
+h table...yahoo!!!
                $clients{$info[0]} = $info[1];
            }
            $sth_clients ->finish;
        }
            #getlist of projects that are active
            $sth_project = $dbh->prepare_cached("select * from project
+ where active=1");
            $sth_project -> execute;
            while (@info = $sth_project->fetchrow_array) { #make a has
+h table...yahoo!!!
                $projectList{$info[0]} = $info[1];
            }
            $sth_project ->finish;
    &DisconnectDB;
    
    print "<FONT face='Arial' size=2><b>ADD $table ";

keeping everything else the same, if I put the second halfin an else block(below) the script locksup in the browser.

        if ($D::table == /client/i) {
            $sth_clients = $dbh->prepare_cached("select * from client"
+);
            $sth_clients -> execute;
            while (@info = $sth_clients->fetchrow_array) { #make a has
+h table...yahoo!!!
                $clients{$info[0]} = $info[1];
            }
            $sth_clients ->finish;
        }
        else {
            #getlist of projects that are active
            $sth_project = $dbh->prepare_cached("select * from project
+ where active=1");
            $sth_project -> execute;
            while (@info = $sth_project->fetchrow_array) { #make a has
+h table...yahoo!!!
                $projectList{$info[0]} = $info[1];
            }
            $sth_project ->finish;
        }
    &DisconnectDB;
    
    print "<FONT face='Arial' size=2><b>ADD $table ";
