All other default values will remain same. But I have to remember every value and pass it through the function. I am proposing a this change like this: myFunction('Default Value', $var4=10); so that Every developer can only pass value with specific variable name. This issue arises at many function when we used in our development. I think this change will be a big feature for developer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73550&edit=1
