       DirContext.REPLACE_ATTRIBUTE,
         new BasicAttribute(
           "mail",
              "geisel@wizards.com"));
     
     // Add additional value to "telephonenumber"
     mods[1] = new ModificationItem(
       DirContext.ADD_ATTRIBUTE,
 
         //The next two lines should be in one line
         new BasicAttribute("telephonenumber",
           "+1 555 555 5555"));
     
     // Remove jpegphoto
     mods[2] = new ModificationItem(
       DirContext.REMOVE_ATTRIBUTE,
         new BasicAttribute("jpegphoto"));
