RE: [PHP-DEV] feature request

It should be possible to do this. I'll look into it. But I also need to think about how much sense it makes :) Today you're asking for isset(...,...,...). Tomorrow you will ask to know which one was not set if it failed. So I hope what youreally want is only the first. Andi At 09:42 PM 3/18/2001 -0500, Mike Robinson wrote:

So isset($var1, $var2, $var3) would only return true if $var1, $var2, and $var3 are set and false otherwise. So If I had a form passing $name, $email, $phone: example #1 if (isSet($name, $email, $phone)) // ALL GOOD Instead of example #2 if ((isSet($name)) &&

    (isSet($email)) &&
    (isSet($phone)))
    // ALL GOOD

Granted if one variable wasn't set, then you might run into some minor issues if you want to figure out which one is not set. But that is the developers choice. :) It wouldn't break existing functionality, seems simple enough to implement (although my karma is limited to doc's so someone else would have to do it), and would make some people happy. That seems to be reason enough to do it. Just my 2 cents. Ditto. It would be handy. If you are willing and able to do stuff like this, maybe a request for additional karma would be in order.
