No I do not. Not every imaginable use case should have dedicated language construct for it - sometimes it is OK to type 2 lines of code. Sometimes even 3. This case is well served by existing language syntax, which also allows much more flexibility and control over what happens if the variable does not match. I see no reason to invent language construct the only purpose of which is to save you typing one if clause. -- 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
