Exceptions should not be used for flow control. They are called "exceptions" for a reason - to signify that something unusual (exceptional) happened outside normal application functionality, which now needs to be abandoned and the application should switch into "the sky is falling, how I get out of it without losing too much?" mode. If you're using exceptions for anything that is normal for your application, you're doing it wrong. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227 -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
