No, you don't get an error. You'd get an error in compiled language. In dynamic language, your client gets an error when his site is launched and instead of happy launch his users get white screens. To avoid that, you'd need to add checks - or just ship it as is and hope your unit tests were as good as you hoped they are (which they never are). -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227 -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
