Now if what you meant was the following: $objectFoo = new MyObject(); $objectFee = &$objectFoo; unset( $objectFoo ); Then the object shouldn't be deleted since $objectFee is still referencing it. You will just break the reference. Correct me if I'm wrong *chuckle*
What if I did $objectFoo = new MyObject; $objectFee = $objectFoo; unset($objectFoo); essentially, does PHP make a (deep|shallow) copy of an object in this reassignment, or is it just creating a new reference? Erik ---- Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H. Brown pricee@hhbrown.com
