Camel Case in PHP??

Is it common to use Camel Case in PHP, because I find it unefficient to use under-scores. I am sure you could but is it a common practice?

I believe it is mostly a preference. Some people will use Camel Caps, while others will use underscores if they are allowed. I personally like using underscores because it is easier for me to read, however, I can see why people like Camel Caps as well.
