We have had discussions before over the various 'complaint' sites and how in many cases the 'complaints' get more prominence than the actual current 'solution'. Yet again, what is needed rather than a manual describing each function individually since for example one would not look under 'array_' for a solution to this problem, is a 'best practice' example which can help even those of us who are stuck with legacy practices which COULD be improved with better modern samples. -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
