Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php The array key is not to be changed afterwards - especially since an array key can only be string or iteger and we can't really pevent the write access to references. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-02-20 09:09:12] martin dot koranda at gmail dot com Description: ------------ in foreach loop, if i try to use keys as a reference, i'll get "Fatal error: Key element cannot be a reference". my question is why not? can Zend developers add the possibility of key element reference in the sixth PHP version?? Reproduce code: --------------- foreach($arr as &$key => $val) { ... } Expected result: ---------------- change keys inside the foreach loop Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Key element cannot be a reference ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44180&edit=1
