If nothing should throw exceptions then they shouldn't be in the language. However, having decided to place exceptions to the language, it's only rational to implement them in a sane way. I understand you're against them. Personally, I may not use them. However, I really don't think it makes any sense to set exceptions up for failure with a half-baked implementation. (I'm not saying the ZE2 part of exeptions is half-baked. That works. It's the deployment of exceptions that's half-baked.) -adam -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] author of o'reilly's php cookbook avoid the holiday rush, buy your copy today! -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
