Ah, good point.
BTW in the don't-trust-everything-you-read department: Hans just said any
book that says to say $array[elementname] should be reconsidered. Just
such a book is where I picked up the nasty habit back in the day.
Likewise, register_globals. I seem to recall in ancient times (4 years
ago?) reading PHP tutorials online that said, in substance, PHP is just
great because if you have a form element named "foo", then when the form
is submitted you automatically get its value available to you in $foo,
isn't that the coolest?
