It doesn't work this way in PHP4 anyway. So if you really must use this feature (I think I would) you can live with being locked to PHP5. Because when you use this feature you must anyway provide other means for your scripts to handle this in PHP4, so a version_compare() can't kill you. IMHO this parameter is a good thing. I've always wanted it. +1 from me for optional parameter. -10 for anyhting like 'use current error_reporting() setting' or 'just change the behavior from PHP4 to PHP5' (you need version_compare() again). Both of these proposals are equally confusing. Lenar -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
