Re: BUG - Someone else please verify B4 I file

Sure. It's an "environment variable", so it should always be set, even if it is empty. It's just a matter that all variables are declared, THEN their values are assigned. That's how C works, and that's what PHP is built in, so that's the behavior. It makes it more standard with other applications, without loosing any real functionality. So it's annoying at times, but with just a switch-aroo of the functions you are using, you can do the same stuff. -- Plutarck Should be working on something... ...but forgot what it was.
