wouldn't work) and the examples in the documentation show multiple
header() calls to set multiple headers and no indication is made that
multiple headers can be sent. Quite the opposite.Do you know of any application which still uses it? I'd be willing to
take the risk. Would be a good example where a release candidate could be
useful to warn people about possible problems and revert to the old
behaviour if people complain IMHO.No I don't know of any application which uses it. You might be right.
If you people think we should introduce it then I'd do it for 5.1.x and as
you said, definitely have an RC before release.Andi

And as I mentioned to Andi in another email the change would also
increase consistency of PHP on different (SAPI-)platforms which would
make scripts more portable.

I'm fairly sure this topic came up on the list a little while back.
Would you mind searching the archives to see what the outcome was?
I think we ended up deciding to keep the current behaviour for BC reasons.
