Idea 1: Try using the DEFAULT values for those optional args. Idea 2: Perhaps LDAP itself has special characters that are "wildcard" and you can use those for the arguments. I would try "*" myself... Idea 3: Are you sure the arguments are even meaninful if you pass nothing for 4th and 5th and something for the 6th?... This may be a restriction of LDAP rather htan PHP. Idea 4: Try NULL for both args. Idea 5: Put *NOTHING* between the commas for the 4th/5th args. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
