Hi. Quite a simple question (assuming I've got the terminology correct). Are there any plans to allow code like this (amended example taken from the array_map() documentation) ... <?php $a = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5); $b = array_map(function($n){return($n * $n * $n)}, $a); print_r($b); For me, this is cleaner than having a use-once, namespace-polluting function. Currently, this is producing a parse error.
    
It works. You have a typo. You need to put ";" after return (…) Hi,
with PHP < 5.3, you can also use create_function() (http://www.php.net/create_function )
