I've noticed that if you systematically use function & functionName () {}; The calls with or without & will work as intended (that is the caller can decide if he/she wants a reference or a copy). Kind of strange programming, I think (setting the reference or value return from the calling script) but I think if PHPeople really wanted to endorse it, they'd put & automatically before each function call. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.references.return.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+40148 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+40148&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+40148&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
