Hi, Internally I use variables but I use the array to update the value since I have problems with the scope inside classes. So I update the value on the array just at the end of the script by registering an update function with register_shutdown_function(). What is the reason that I should not use the array? Is there any problem doing it that way? Thanks in advance. Sean C. McCarthy SCI, S.L. (www.sci-spain.com) PS: By the way I couldn't find this bug in the bug database.
