If that function can handle plural forms, then it should know formating rules based on language set in first argument and second argument should only set array of strings formated according to language rules. Second argument should not have to evaluate number every time translator wants to use plural form. -- Tomas -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
