Cool, just wanted a definitive 'no' :) As it is, I don't really care if the
user manages to jam some odd value in there since it's building a SELECT
statement and nothing "dangerous".

Hooray for 'default' case!! :P

Thanks!

No. Switch to an if()...elseif()...else() and use a regular expression
character class or something similar inside the if().

There was a brief talk of adding this to PHP, but it was rejected.
