From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: Win98 PHP version: 4.0.5 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: References and Arrays Another way of the references & array problem that shows up while copying arrays: <? $aArray = Array(); $aArray["test"] = "Hello World!"; $rRef = &$aArray["test"]; echo $rRef."<br>"; $aArray2 = Array(); $aArray2["test"] = "Hello World 2!"; $aArray = $aArray2; echo $aArray["test"]."<br>"; echo $rRef; ?> The last echo should return "Hello World 2!" but it doesnt. A workaround is to copy the arrays per key: <? while (list($key) = each($aArray2)) { $aArray[$key] = $aArray2[$key]; } ?> then all is ok. -- Edit bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=13269&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
