Wow, I was cracking my head last time figuring out the problem.
This what happend, back in 2002 I was fooling around with php3 wiht all
those code from php and mysql books, well they did parse perfectly.
Now fast forward to 2005 WITHOUT TOUCHING PHP for 3 years, I got into
this problem. WHAT A FITFALL!!!, Yes because I dont program much for a
living.
