I mean, by looking at the existing code in PEAR, that it doesn't seem to be such a big concern to follow PEAR CS. I for one have always tried to follow the rules as close as I could. And I will continue to do so until I find the rules are stupid, something which apparently will come sooner than I thought. Just to be sure you understand what I am saying: "I won't prefix my protected vars with underscores, whether it is one, two or three underscores". I hope that's ok with everyone :) Bertrand Mansion Mamasam
