Because PHP is such a 'thrown together' and 'bolted-on' language. If it didn't have *outstanding* documentation (which it does BTW), no one could even begin to understand how they got from a little HTML language to a kinda/sorta OO language. PHP is showing its age... thanks to its docs, it's still *extremely* useful. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
