New Comment:
A pretty interesting bug this is, there appear to be 2 possible
behaviours that can happen here and only 1 is correct.
<?php
$ar = array();
for ( $count = 0; $count < 10; $count++ )
{
$ar[$count] = "$count";
$ar[$count]['idx'] = "$count";
}
for ( $count = 0; $count < 10; $count++ )
{
echo $ar[$count]." -- ".$ar[$count]['idx']."\n";
}
?>
The code above will output:
t 0 -- t
t 1 -- t
t 2 -- t
t 3 -- t
t 4 -- t
t 5 -- t
t 6 -- t
t 7 -- t
t 8 -- t
t 9 -- t

If the " around the $count variable are removed then the script
reports:
Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in
/home/rei/PHP_CVS/php4/a.php on line 7

for every assignment and does no initialize any of the
$ar[$count]['idx'] values.

However, the following codes does work, even though the array is still
ragged:
<?
$ragged = array();
for ( $count = 0; $count < 10; $count++ )
{
$ragged['idx'][$count] = 'ragged '.$count;
$ragged[$count] = 'single '.$count;
}
?>
<html><head></head><body>
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>Expected</td><td>Actual</td>
<td>Expected IDX</td><td>Actual IDX</td>
</tr>
<?
for ( $count = 0; $count < 10; $count++ )
{
?>
<tr>
<td> <?= 'single '.$count ?> </td><td> <?= $ragged[$count] ?> </td>
<td> <?= 'ragged '.$count ?> </td><td> <?= $ragged['idx'][$count] ?>
</td>
</tr>
<? } ?>
</table></body></html>

When using an array that has ragged indices, the value in the array is
undefined. Well, actually it can be defined, but it is unexpected. No
errors or warnings are reported. Sample Code:
<?
$ragged = array();
for ( $count = 0; $count < 10; $count++ )
{
$ragged[$count] = 'single '.$count;
$ragged[$count]['idx'] = 'ragged '.$count;
}
?>
<html><head></head><body>
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>Expected</td><td>Actual</td>
<td>Expected IDX</td><td>Actual IDX</td>
</tr>
<?
for ( $count = 0; $count < 10; $count++ )
{
?>
<tr>
<td> <?= 'single '.$count ?> </td><td> <?= $ragged[$count] ?> </td>
<td> <?= 'ragged '.$count ?> </td><td> <?= $ragged[$count]['idx'] ?>
</td>
</tr>
<? } ?>
</table></body></html>
