while(1)

//screw things up, find out you did so and put a new name after the original language
$lang_name .= fun_abbrevation ();
}
} else {
//do nothing, cause it's working :P
}[/CODE]

Changed thread title to be meaningful.

Well, PHP is looking at version 6 right now.

I think we're going to be seeing a (eventually, probably version 7 or 8) truly object-oriented language with powerful extensibility (though the latter is already the case!).

Yah, they were gonna go with PHP.NET, but that one was already taken.

OOP!

I love object orientation, and so far PHP has been somewhat disapointing in that arena, although they made some improvements in PHP 5, im hoping they will buff it up and add stuff like namespaces and (usefull) static classes. (Which according to the article posted above, they will :D)
