Maybe you are right. I don't like mixed as you don't know what it usually returns without reading the docs. "String not found" can be also interpreted as a kind of an error. If you persist on your interpretation and others agree, go ahead and commit it again and let me sorry for my bogus reversion. Jakub Vrana
