+1 to getting the language consistent I think there should be a no compromise pure version of the language - the unaliased (and quickest?) version, but existing stuff should remain available as an alias. We haven't so far discussed the order of function parameters. Consistent and guessable is good enough for me. Nor have we discussed how much user code we will break by invading the namespace with string_tokenise() etc. I suspect that a php.ini switch may be required to enable the new pure naming scheme. Alternatively, a tool would have to be written to automagically fix existing scripts. Cheers -- Phil Driscoll Dial Solutions +44 (0)113 294 5112 http://www.dialsolutions.com http://www.dtonline.org
