the issue is that the array $y below results in an empty string:

I would definately call that intended. What would you expect the resultant query string to look like?
my original assumption was that both cases would produce the same result. I don't see the rationale (although internally it may be obvious) that the second array 'resolves' (is that the correct use of the word?) into an empty string. -
an empty string is a valid value for a param coming from the POST/GET request, php's loose nature lead me to assume the an empty array in such a context would result in at least the some output - I went with the feeling that an empty array is not emptier than an empty string.
anyway, thanks for the feedback.
