Just a remark but isn't it pointless to use Hungariannotation in a
language that is by default typeless???
[/snip]

We use it becuase we have a group of programmers, so the notation makes
it easier for one in the group to understand the intention of another in
the group. The notation also helps to clear up any casting issues that
may arise. http://us2.php.net/language.types.type-juggling

And it helps when you get back up to speed when you revisit a project after
a few months.
Use of Hungarian notation has been a bit of a religious issue; use what
works and use it consistently.

Of course, if you come from the Flash world, it's likely a postfix (ugly
word!) rather than prefix.
