Single quotes, but check out http://au2.php.net/types.string for details why :) > 2/it's working with other words wihtout the quotes (eg > $ownerId=$row_resultTask[ownerID];) > is it because private is a reserved word or something? yep. PHP interprets any word it doesn't recognise as a constant, which is why it worked before. if you do this <?php error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT); echo something_not_defined; ?> You'll get this: Notice: Use of undefined constant something_not_defined - assumed 'something_not_defined' but if you change something_not_defined to a reserved word like private, you'll get a parse error as you found. > any > idea where I > could find a list? I don't know about a list as such, but http://www.php.net/manual/en/ will help. Rob -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
