Nope, but you don't HAVE to write out 'NULL' - you can simply pass 0.

Gotta question for all of the gurus...
I know you can have default values in a function. Is there anyway you can
use 'named arguments' like Visual Basic??
I've got a large number of functions that I need to call is this manner. The
use of 'NULL' 40,000 times is a major pain in the posterior to fill all of
the missing arguments. If the writers of PHP could add a ability like this,
they would be right up there with Twinkies, Yoo-Hoo's and God:
function _browser($html_version = false, $explorer_version = false,
$navigator_version = false)
{
blah-blah-blah;
}
$value = _browser($navigator_version := true);
Just hoping someone could add this feature to save grief and ulcers...
