Hi all, First, a clarification: The LANGUAGE is seriously flawed.
* One single namespace polluted with global functions. * Ridiculously similar functions: - sort, asort, ksort, usort, uasort, uksort, rsort, arsort - ereg, eregi - mysql_connect, mysql_pconnect - mysql_query, mysql_db_query Need more be said?
