<br><tt><font size=2>I think this is more a Java question of how to call
a method in instalments.<br>
<br>
One option is to set a temporary from the 1st column, and call from<br>
the 2nd: The first column might be<br>
String code = $param;<br>
and the next column would<br>
callHelperFunction( code, $param, $handleFromConditions);<br>
and the next column would<br>
<br>
Alternatively, you can do<br>
startHelperFunction( $handle, $param );<br>
execHelperFunction( $param );<br>
also with each statement coming from a column of its own.<br>
<br>
With non-statics, also chained calls would be possible.<br>
