Unordered input args to a function ... possible?

[jtown]

Is something like this possible?

<?php

function myfunc($i, $j){
return($j);
}

echo myfunc($j=6, $i=3);
?>

I know this doesn't work, but is there some way to do unordered list for input arguments to a function? I want the above function to return 6 by only manipulating the function call.

Thanks!

You could use an array as the parameter:

function myFunc($a)
{
   if(is_array($a) and isset($a['j']))
   {
      echo $a['j'];
   }
}

echo myFunc(array('j' => 6, 'i' => 3);

Ah true. Almost as equally confusing though. Haha.

Unfortunately, named parameters will not be present even in PHP6.
