Agreed. Compilers should give errors and not try to work around bad code. Had the first generation of browsers done that we would have had a much nicer web today. It would be useful with some flag/variable to set that makes pg generate varnings for non standard constructs. Unfortunatly there are so many things that are non standard, still using != instead of <> could be a usable warning. -- /Dennis Björklund ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
