+10 to solve the situation. but [EMAIL PROTECTED] 0 waiting for a good way without breaking old scripts. possibly make a internal or loadable "argument reposition table", enabled with: declare(fix_function_argument_position); fix at compile time, no performance lost on runtime. but might confuse the debuger if the origin position in source is forget after compile can't help for class method as class is unknown at compile time -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
