I could see some n00b skimming over the docs and going, "Wait, what--?" Oh-- how about if the detonate() command just echoed a series of "tick" strings to the web page? Can't you just imagine the frantic tech support calls from n00b PHP coders to the tech support departments of their hosting companies? "Oh crap oh crap! Pick up the phone already! Oh crap I'm so busted!" Reminds me (obliquely) of an entry in the index for "The C Programming Language" for recursion, which points right back to that index page. I about doubled over when I first discovered it. Paul -- Paul M. Foster http://noferblatz.com http://quillandmouse.com
