Furthermore you can implement it in the following way: $var = $val ?: $else; $var = if (isset($val)) $val else $else; in contrast to $var = if ($val) $val else $else; Notice that the former implementation does not need any change in access methods. It simply uses a different access for the test or better said it creates a different test. Best regards, Marcus mailto:helly@php.net
