RE: [PHP-WIN] anti-advocacy: Larry Seltzer, pcmag May'01 pub.

<not a flame> Hey! Some of us out here LIKE case-sensitive languages. Is there really any reason why you need to use STRPOS() in one place, StrPos() in another, Strpos() in another, and strpos() in another? If you use any sort of naming convention, the case-sensitivity actually HELPS people understand your code. Get used to it, even html is going to end up being case sensitive when xhtml becomes the day-to-day standard. </not a flame> - Theo -----Original Message----- From: Greg Brunet [mailto:GBrunet@Semper_Soft.com] Sent: Thursday, May 10, 2001 1:05 AM To: php-windows@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] anti-advocacy: Larry Seltzer, pcmag May'01 pub. Tim: AAARRRGGH! They got it half-right with case insensitive functions and now they're going to mess up the part that's done right!?! It is quite annoying that they aren't consistent, but I was thankful that at least the functions were working "right". -- Greg "Tim Uckun" <tim@diligence.com> wrote in message news:5.0.0.25.2.20010509163817.00ae9878@mail.diligence.com... > From what I hear it's about to get worse.
