as op, i think i'm going to stick with the cast. but it's been an
interesting thread and i learned some useful things.

exactly. and i dislike typing
"SELECT col FROM tab WHERE a=" . $a['blah'] . " AND ... "
or even
"SELECT col FROM tab WHERE a={$a['blah']} AND ... "
when i could type
"SELECT col FROM tab WHERE a=$a->blah AND ... "
which is also easier to read.
i'm really lazy about typing.
