+1 for case-sensitive everything

so you volunter to rewrite all the code that uses oci or gd extension now but uses it all lowercase? ;)

I didn't say +1 for lower-case everything! (although that is my preference, for functionnames at least ;-)

oci and gd extensions had mixed-case names for ages, but you see both mixed- and all-lower case usage all over the place now no matter how the function names themselves will be in the future, case-sensitivity will break app. half of the existing code using them we've been fighting about backwards compatibilty issues far less critical than this and usualy have decided to keep bc where possible until it really does hurt to much, all these efforts would become useless if we introduced a bc breaking change as far reaching as this just for cosmetic/esthetic reasons ... -- Hartmut Holzgraefe hartmut@six.de http://www.six.de +49-711-99091-77 Wir stellen für Sie aus auf der CeBIT 2002 und freuen uns in Halle 6 auf Ihren Besuch am Stand H 18
