Getting philosophical. It's the same as if you want to read a page in a book, but that page doesn't exist. For example a book with 40 pages, but you want to read page 42. :) Is it an error to try it? Yes, because if possible without error, you could do the same with the universe and look at a part of it that doesn't exist. Someone has to create it first. :) More serious: For me it's the other way arround, it's one of the best things, that have been introduced, because before it, a very small write error had big impacts. I see - as you - the need to make simple things more short, but removing warnings from existing code constructs is definitly the wrong way. -- Alex Aulbach -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
