Thanx but I am using PHP 4.1.2 on one machine, PHP 4.3.2 on another
machine, PHP 4.3.9 on another machine and PHP 5.0.4 on another machine,
all test machines for building a portable web application product. So
I can't have anything specific to PHP 5.0+ without having to come up
with a PHP 4+ version, and I can't imagine a version for that, so I'm
scrapping the whole filter thing.

Thanx though
Phil
