There are several PHP functions dealing with processing arrays. A few of them take at least 1 array and a callback. The callback is the last parameter, so... array array_uintersect(array array1, array array2 [, array ...], callback data_compare_func) is the expected output. I'm not too sure if the second param is repeatable (to me repeatable implies optional otherwise how many times must it be repeated) or is the third parameter optional but also repeatable? I'm sure there's a difference! -- ----- Richard Quadling Zend Certified Engineer : http://zend.com/zce.php?c=ZEND002498&r=213474731 "Standing on the shoulders of some very clever giants!"
