Re: [PHPiCalendar-DEV] help

[Jared <xe...@si...>]

I don't understand exactly what "passing by reference" is and why I 
can't find any information about it being deprecated on the PHP 
website. I also want to know why all sscanf() function examples in the 
function list on the PHP website use references like we did and you say 
removing the & still allows the script to function normally. I don't 
understand the purpose of the & in the first place, then.

I understand what & does, but I've never used it before and I'm not 
sure why it is or is not needed in that case.

Anyway, Chad rewrote it so it doesn't even use sscanf so it no longer 
uses the & either.
