Thanks! The spec of variable name is defined. As a regular expression, it would be expressed thus: '[a-zA-Z_\x7f-\xff][a-zA-Z0-9_\x7f-\xff]*' http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.basics.php Therefore, people are using something more meaningful like http://3v4l.org/78ek4 It's useful for teaching kids to program with their native language, for example. I see many codes that use Japanese strings in Unit tests. Regards, -- Yasuo Ohgaki yohgaki@ohgaki.net
