I don't like the term 'functional' there, as it's misleading... Languages like lisp, haskell, ... are commonly referred to as functional languages, where languages like C (and non-OO PHP) are referred to as imperative or procedural. I think that should be rephrased... maybe titled as 'traditional interface' or alike. -- Regards, Stefan Walk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
