Thanks the feedback so far. To expand the scope of my issue past enums (which by their limited nature are easy to check and set defaults) let me ask this...
There is a column called Address in my email table, Thus I am creating a PHP object called Email to interact with it. The Address variable of this object will hold a string like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]". In the setAddress method should I check for a valid email address and throw a warning then? And if so how? Or should I simply create a method isValidAddress and do the verification in my own interface code? ~ Mike ----- Mike Zornek Web Designer, Media Developer, Programmer and Geek Personal site: <http://MikeZornek.com> New Project: <http://WebDevWiki.com> -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
