Most code out there isnt written with PEAR at all and > thus when comparing code and the manual it might be unclear to the reader. to quote myself: " At first PEAR does have a excellent error handling, but it is to complex to intoduce it inside of examples in the PHP manual. Nevertheless error handling is needed. I vote for the 'or die()' construct where needed (e.g. mysql_connect() and friends)" I said nothing about using PEAR itself in the manual examples. I am against it either. I just want to adapt the PEAR coding standart to the manual. Jan -- Q: Thank Jan? A: http://geschenke.an.dasmoped.net/
