Can't Input an int....

[qwertykeyboard]

For some reason, I am having a really wierd problem with a program... It wont let me input an integer. Its part of a function in a somewhat simple battleship game. Here is the start of that function:

void playerattack()
{
    int hori;
    char vert, ship;
    bool hit;
    
    cout<<"Chose horizontal target (1-10): ";
    cin>>hori;

...

It compiles fine, but when I put in that number it crashes... Any sugestions would be great.

Post your whole code, what you have there seems to be fine unless you are entering in a character instead of a number.

I'm going to try revising the whole thing first. A bunch of parts got quite messy, because at the end I was getting a bit overwhelmed. If I still have this problem afterwards I'll post the whole thing.
