I got that, and I like simplification. It would just not really make php.ini files "portable" between Windows and Unix. I could even think of some other feature(let)s that might help us move into that direction: - define a unified path separator for include_path (the system-dependend ones could still be accepted, thus keeping BC) - accept paths in php.ini with forward slashes on all systems (I think Apache also does -even requires- it that way) - for system-dependent settings like SMTP, have SMTP.Windows and SMTP.Unix settings that can "override" the general SMTP setting (this idea certainly needs some more thought) - also make zend_extension and zend_extension_ts "guess" wether dll or so is to be loaded Kind regards, Stefan -- >e-novative> - We make IT work for you. e-novative GmbH - HR: Amtsgericht München HRB 139407 Sitz: Wolfratshausen - GF: Dipl.
