I am wondering what are people's opinions on adding support for negative string offsets that could be used to access data from the end of a string. Ex. $a = "123"; echo $a[-1]; // would print 3 I don't think we should do this for arrays, since -1 and similar are valid array keys, which means adding this support for arrays would break BC.I need this, +1 Greg
