Maybe I am then misunderstanding your proposal, as to me it is clearly covered and deemed not possible: http://wiki.php.net/rfc/ifsetor#rejected_features $var = ifsetor($var, $var2, "admin"); However this is currently not possible to be implemented without major slowdowns to the engine. regards, Lukas Kahwe Smith m...@pooteeweet.org -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
