Does anything interesting happen when you put 'error_reporting(E_ALL);' at the beginning of the script? With what browser are you viewing the results? What happens when you do it at the command line? BTW--to the question from the original bug post: Single-quoted strings are not parsed for escape sequences or variable expansion (save \' which does work). What behaviour are you seeing from them? -- +----------------------------------------------------------------+ |Torben Wilson <torben@php.net> Netmill iTech| |http://www.coastnet.com/~torben http://www.netmill.fi| |Ph: 1 250 383-9735 torben@netmill.fi| +----------------------------------------------------------------+
