I'm lost
Are you saying that your code currently returns # signs for all the text entered or are you saying that you would like it to return the # for your letters?

What are you wanting it to do, and what is it doing?

Re: Simple Code needs fixing

ok what i want my code to do is

If $letter2 = a number 1, 2, 3 etc. it sets $letter3 to '#'
If $letter2 = a letter it sets $letter3 to $letter2 so it pretty much stays the same

is that what you wanted to know?

And what my code currently does is just set $letter3 to '#' for letters and numbers

You can use is_int
Eg.

 Help with Code Tags 
 php Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
if(is_int($letter2)){
$letter3="#";
} else {
 $letter3=$letter2;
}
if(is_int($letter2)){
$letter3="#";
} else {
 $letter3=$letter2;
}

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.
