That just tells me what interfaces ARE, but it certainly does not say
that interfaces are REQUIRED. It is possible to define a class method and
access it directly WITHOUT going through an interface, therefore an
interface IS NOT NECESSARY.


Forget it. Obviously you haven't understood what interfaces in PHP are
used for and what you can do/ensure with them. Just an example: Without
these interfaces it wouldn't be possible to use 'foreach' to iterate
over any arbitrary object:

foreach ($directory as $file) {...}
foreach ($resultSet as $record) {...}

Micha,

Tony is just a troll who is beyond stupid. He can't even understand the
"experts" he quotes. They contradict what he says, but he can't see that.

They also contradict what you say, and you can't see that.
