Re: suggestion: empty() with infinite parameters like isset()

There is a big difference between isset() and empty() and it was discussed a lot in the past. You'll see both sides to the coin after reading the archives. It's really a problem make a call on this one. Andi At 01:13 PM 10/20/2004 +0200, Ron Korving wrote:

Okay, I don't wanna make remarks that may have already been made earlier, but I think it should be "all should be empty", because it works exactly the same for isset(), and apparently, a decision was made to give isset() that feature.

I think it would be a good idea to apply the idea of infinite parameters that's been used with isset(), so one can test multiple variables: if (empty($var1, $var2, $var3)) echo "data missing";

We discussed this before and we didn't want to agree if it should behave like "each one should be empty" or "all should be empty". So we will not add it.
