What kind of failure are you trying to catch? not really trying to 'catch' a failure. I have to parse the given string format and determine if that format is valid. If yes, then I can do more work and return an instance. If no, I wanted to return a NULL. That way I know it failed. Maybe I should be looking at PEAR::Error istead of a NULL on faliure. Thanks Walter
