That it is too short, is an opinion. Having one version where both the old version of the function, and the new version work is the minimum (imo) as it allows people to run the same code on both. But anything more than that is a nicety, not a requirement. Also, in my opinion. cheers Dan Ack -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
