Well actually yes I did say: > So I tried it out.. at first I created a loop that assigned $x = 1; a whole > bunch of times, but that didnąt crash anything.. But then I went on and said: > I then read the authors post a little closer and I realized it was a number of > lines problem.. so I created a php file that had a whole bunch of $x = 1; > commands in it.. 7996 to be exact.. add the opening and closing php tag.. that > made 7998 lines.. the script still worked..

And apparently it only happens on OS X boxes as the author said in the bugg report <http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=25394>.. so if you're on an OS X box then Im not sure why it works for you and every single person that has tested it on an OS X box so far it hasnąt worked.. I would be very curious as to how you built your php on your OS X box.. and to figure out the difference.. Maybe we'll figure this thing out! :) Rick Until you have learned to be tolerant with those who do not always agree with you; until you have cultivated the habit of saying some kind word of those whom you do not admire; until you have formed the habit of looking for the good instead of the bad there is in others, you will be neither successful nor happy. - Napolean Hill -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
