$firstName is the most readable.. for variables. does anybody have negative thoughts on using the same naming format for method/function and for class names? i guess it's worth sharing! many thanks! ~viraj
I like using $first_name. I don't have any problems with using that convention for method/function/class names. The only problem I have found (regardless of naming convention) is in using $_SESSION[]'s. Sometimes: $first_name = $_SESSION['first_name.']; will cause problems. The solution is to use an index that's named different than the variable name, such as: $first_name = $_SESSION['session_first_name.']; Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
