Serialization is intended for complicated objects like user-defined classes and resource identifiers (including database connections and file handles); there is no need to serialize the built-in datatypes like string or bool. So saltymeat's warning about unserializing a boolean shouldn't be that necessary, since a boolean can be bassed as a 1 or a 0, avoiding the need for serialization. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.unserialize.php Edit Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+35047 Delete Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+35047&report=yes Reject Note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+35047&report=yes
