As you all know variable scope in functions determines that $var1 outside a function is not the same a $var1 inside the function, so you must pass $var1 to the function. Basic stuff. Anyhow, there are many variables built into PHP such as $PHP_SELF that still comply to the variable scope rules, which I think is *very* annoying. I do not think it should be necessary to pass something like $PHP_SELF to your function if you need to call it within. I dunno, maybe I'm just whining, but there you have it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=16981&edit=1
