    If you mean things like if, else, etc... Then a quick Google search will provide you with a ton of basic tutorials. The syntax is quite easy to follow. Same solution if you're talking about conditional loops.

    I tried again, I restarted and tried again, for some reason my browser is not showing your site, though it loaded, and I can see the source code.

    Chemo is on the right track, I think. I looked at this thread a while ago and didn't know what 'conditional functions' were, so I steered clear :)

    But yeah, Chemo makes a good point and he jolted my memory: it may also be in reference to using call_user_func ( http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/function.call-user-func.php ) whereby you can use a variable to define the name of the function to call.

    There's always the php website, www*php.net

    if(statement) {
    $result = Function_A();
    } else {
    $result = Function_A();
    }

    or

    function testFunction($var) {
    if($var==statement) {
    //do somthing
    //return something
    } else {
    //do somthing else
    //return something else
    }
    //or return something here
    }
