Actually this is a feature of Python. It is VERY useful and I would be ecstatic if it turned up in PHP. Regs Brian White At 11:36 25/09/2001 +0300, Andrey Hristov wrote:
After some days spent in a hospital reading "Programming Perl" and "Oracle Web Applications" I found that a language construct which appears in Perl and PL/SQL is not available in PHP. As in most 3G languages function call is like that $bar=foo($bar1,$bar2,$bar3,'bar4'); function foo($par1=1,$par2=2,$par3=3,$par4='foo_bar',...){ ... } In the case when I've few parameters I've to remember their order, so why not $bar=foo('par2'=>10); I want to pass value to only one or more but not to all params. Also this will make the code clearer I think. Comments are welcome!
