Yeah, I don't like it too much either. But remember that throwing exceptions is *not* the default here. The default is a warning which I even like less as you'll have to shut it up with the @ operator. Andrei, I think we discuss that at some point too, but I don't remember the outcome on that. Do you have the specific conversion error modes documented somewhere? regards, Derick -- Derick Rethans http://derickrethans.nl | http://ez.no | http://xdebug.org
