Thanks Eric for the help, now for him or any others who want to chime in...Let's try and make this REAL clear...First let us make this code easier to read.1. String insert = $ClientLogo;2. If ("$ClientLogo".equals(insert)){3. a=b==d||e?f:g;4. }else if{5. {a=c;6. }Next, If I were to rewrite this code to make the precedence easier to follow,would it look like this?1. String insert = $ClientLogo;2. If ("$ClientLogo".equals(insert)){3. a=((b==d)||(e?f:g));4. }else if{5. {a=c;6. }Is this correct? Am I understanding the order of operations here?If the order is correct then I believe this is what is happening.First (b==d) is evaluated.Second (e?f:g) is evaluated.Third ((b==d)||(e?f:g)) is evaluated.Fourth a=((b==d)||(e?f:g)) is evaluated.Thanks for your patience. If I can get this part of the code figured outI think I am almost home.Mark"Eric L" <[email protected]> wrote:>>>5 if ("$ClientLogo".equals(insert)) {>>6 replacement = null==logoPicName || "".equals(logoPicName.trim()) ?
