Personally, I think the point is moot. Whether or not you can generally use true/false as array keys, AFAIK, one can never get the PHP values true or false back from a form post. In that light, one has no business specifying them when they really mean to specify 0 or 1, not? boots ____________________________________________________________________________________ Get your own web address.
