It'll suppress warnings and errors. If the $purchitem does not have a key 4 or 5, like in your example, then you'll get a warning for undefined offset, depending on your error reporting level. This just suppresses that. If you do it this way, you may want to sort $purchitem if you can't guarantee it's going to be in ascending order. Or you can use in_array() and not care about the order. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
