rewrote summary. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-13 04:05:59] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Good day. It is not a really bug report but a little suggestion for new PHP relase. I'll be good thing to add to PHP language ability to create functions with named parameters like in Visual Basic. For example: //Classic function: function printhello($name, $bold = false, $italic = false) { $ret = "Hello $name!" if ($bold) $ret = "<strong>$ret</strong>"; if ($italic) $ret = "<em>$ret</em>"; echo $ret; } //Suggested function: function printhello(name: $name, fat: $bold = false, emphased: $italic = false) { // same body as above ... } This new function could be called like: printhello("Martin", true); or like new: printhello(fat: true, name: "Martin"); Thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=12712&edit=1
