Of course, the OP can do what (s)he wants at home, but once the code ends up in public, as above, such a hint as Eli's is invaluable. If you want to see what happens otherwise, have a look at PHP. The language itself has evolved a lot since its beginnings (to the better, IMO). But you still see extremely bad habits "out there" which wouldn't be necessary these days -- because, well, they are "out there" (for example: assebling SQL queries with sprintf [1]). They take a life of their own :-) Cheers [1] https://xkcd.com/327/ - t --5mCyUwZo2JvN/JJP Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAmDQniQACgkQBcgs9XrR2kYbuwCfaWQh0wfWb0jji+wIrwtCmamX zIQAn0S/Olk5NTV05Ki1CiTpRP++Gdr1 =wATT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --5mCyUwZo2JvN/JJP--
