Re: repetition of tedious references

i didn't know about empty. thanks! do you have a link to this new php 6 ? : convention? it would be great if php 6 could have a solution for this. php is sweet when it's compact! On 18/07/07, Arpad Ray <arpad@rajeczy.com> wrote:

You can use empty() to take one of them out, since "0" is presumably also not a desired input: $language = empty($_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'])

    : $_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE'];

There's a new ?: operator in PHP 6 which will make that even shorter, however unlike empty(), it currently throws a notice with unset operands.
