This is precisely the point I was going to make. Unless an argument is
passed in by reference for manipulation within the function, I can't
think of a reason why you wouldn't want to return a value; true or false
at the very least. You call a function to perform, well, a function. I
would think that you would want to know whether or not the process
within the function was successful, yes?
thnx,

All depends on the function.
function someFunc(){
$this->counter++;
if($this->counter > 100) $this->counter = 0;
}
Something that simple wont need a return at all.
