I agree on both points. I've mentioned this before as well, but I'll repeat. There is no reason to add another syntax for *exactly* the same thing, especially because it's ungoogable and confusing if you have to read code like: $a = [8,['a','b','c'],'foo']; $b = $a[8][1]; Please let's not turn PHP into unreadable syntax like perl usually advocates. Besides this, it's only really useful for multi-dimensional arrays - and if you go there you've most likely lost anyway. regards, Derick -- Derick Rethans http://derickrethans.nl | http://ezcomponents.org | http://xdebug.org
