What causes this: I have a page getting variable $BackLink with string "http://www.domain.com/my_page.php4". I accidentaly wrote <?=~$BackLink?> and what I got out was "—‹‹ÅÐЈˆˆÑ™–‘“ž‘›š‡‹ŒÑœ’А™™š šŽŠšŒ‹ ™‘‹Ñ—Ë". What causes this? What does that ~ sign do before a variable? Niklas Lampén
