Javascript has this very neat control structure that makes it easy to iterate over the properties of an object. It would be nice to see something similiar in PHP. I often use Objects as a way of "packing" data in a more orderly fashion, and sometimes I need to do stuff to all the properties of an object. A good example is when I have an object whose properties are coming from a form, and going back to the very same form if there were errors in the form. I will have to perform addslashes() and stripslashes() on all the properties in the object, and writing this without a loop can be very tedious. André Næss
