I have one, instead of something like $this->width you can have something like $GLOBALS['width']. Personally I wouldn't recommend it, and I don't recommend turning on register globals so that you can just use $width. That said, if you have no worries about security, then go ahead and turn register globals on, then you can use $width. Mostly though, I'd just use $this->width :) Cheers, Rob. > > Chris > > If you are not the intended recipient of this e-mail, please preserve the > confidentiality of it and advise the sender immediately of any error in > transmission.
