Hi, I've got some PHP code that looks like this
$cura= ord($data{$pnum*2});
$curb = ord($data{$pnum*2+1});
Notice the curly braces -- does using them make any difference, or will
square brackets do the same thing?
Thanks

It will do the same thing. However:

Although it still doesn't throw an E_STRICT in 5.2, I'd use square =
brackets instead of curly braces.

Use square brackets. Curly braces were a fad. something to do with the
parser interpretation or something. I heard that they will be
depreceted as of php6 though.

curly braces are perl syntax.
