Wasn't obvious to me before I tried it :-) That's what i meant it confuses far too many people and doesn't even make real sense. For example converting 42 into chr(42) and setting it would follow the same autoconversion logic. Hence a hint of kind E_STRICT would be very good. marcus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
