if($var) do something; verses if(isset($var)) do something; The simple form if($var) seems to work fine and I see it in code often. Is there a good reason for using isset? Yes, if you don't use isset(), you may see notices (errors) if the variable is not set. This depends upon the error reporting

Re: [PHP] Newbie Question on Efficiency

If you have have a large number of functions, it might be better to separate them into a few files that you can include as needed. I use one file that contains functions needed by every page. I have a few other files that contain functions that aren't needed by every page, so, I include them only

Unless the file is getting retartedly big (10-20K), then I wouldn't separate them. Though if you have enough functions, you could justify making separate files for your database functions, output functions, backend functions, etc. Martin Clifford Homepage: http://www.completesource.net Develop

Re: [PHP] Newbie question to everybody....PHP

I have never really understood why people have problems with arrays. Just think of an array as a table of values. A one-dimensional array would be a table with a single column and each row has a number (or index) assigned to it: +---++ | 0 | Apple | +---++ | 1 | Orange
