Thanks everyone, I knew arrays could be one or the other, but
never considered the same value with multiple indexes. I have
a perfect use for this, where an array I build, the values
have a int index value, and a string an equiv string name.
I'm already doing the zend_hash_update and index_update functions
anyway,
so this should be pretty easy.
Question, what will zend_hash_get_current_key return if it gets
input like this?
