 * Is this what you have? What version of PHP are you running? Can you send me your
   phpinfo() output (admin at maximum dot software)? Thanks.

 * Cheers! It’s good to see a developer that responds quickly!!
 * The error msg was probably due to the fact that I use PHP 5.5, in which arrays
   are defined differently.
 * But since the plugin was not exactly what I needed, I didn’t dig into it any 
   deeper.
    Thanks for the reply!

 * Strange. I tested with 5.5.33 and it worked for me.
 * If you don’t mind me asking, what did you need? If it is something simple, I 
   might want to add that functionality to my plugin.

 * What I needed was basically “HTML 2 PDF” on-the-fly…
    I’ve written my own now.
