If the array you are imploding is empty, implode returns {null}, not an empty string. This can be a concern if you are imploding a dynamically generated array to place in a database. If you get a null and the database field is set to NOT NULL, you get a contstraint violation. This has happened to me with prepared queries in which the system trys to figure out how to send the data to the database. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.implode.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+46584 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46584&report=yes Reason: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46584&report=yes&reason=bad+code Reason: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46584&report=yes&reason=spam Reason: useless example -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46584&report=yes&reason=useless+example Reason: contains commercial links -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46584&report=yes&reason=contains+commercial+links Reason: useless note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46584&report=yes&reason=useless+note Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+46584&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
