While I completely agree with everything you say there, I do think there is a point to the other side side of the argument as well; It *is* sloppy practice to assume that some resource has already been initialised without checking, especially when you're relying on a third-party script. This is a pretty trivial case, but it is a really good habit to get into. -robin -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
