Description: ------------ The script should output '1', but it outputs '0'. Looks like the assignment is made locally. But if I replace '$a =& $b' with '$GLOBALS['a'] =& $b' the script will output '1' (right behaviour) Reproduce code: --------------- $b=1; $a=0; function f() { global $a,$b; $a =& $b; } f(); echo $a; Expected result: ---------------- 1 Actual result: -------------- 0 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26798&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26798&r=float
