should work. It assumes that X will only be between -1 and 1.
That's pretty close to what I did at the beginning and what I just triied just now -- X doesn't get expanded for the conditional inside a ZSQL object AFAICT. -- J C Lawrence Home: claw@kanga.nu ----------(*) Other: coder@kanga.nu --=| A man is as sane as he is dangerous to his environment |=--
If X is being returned from an html form it will actually be a string. (Putting "X:int" in the parameter line of the ZSQL method will not coerce it to an integer.) In that case use "_.int(X)==1" etc. or make the varaible name "X:int" in your form. I have production code that uses this exact type of test.
