Why must not include PHP.php everytime? First of all, I guess you meant "PEAR.php"? And no, it's not included everytime. There is a require_once, and it is only included when needed. So imho in case you just need PEAR.php to throw an error this is a viable solution. You usually expect a package to work, not to fail, so in the success-case PEAR.php wouldn't be included (loaded, parsed, compiled, ...) at all. Stefan
