Hi all,

I've a problem thats been bothering me for a week now

I have an array $animals

keys and values like this

1 => cat
2 => dog
3 => mouse
4 => horse

I want to be able to access them using either a key or a pointer, however the key/pointer will be a variable

without variables, if I want dog, I can either use $animals[1] or $animals['2']

but with a variable , eg. $x = 2
$animals[$x] will always give me 'mouse'

what syntax do I need to use for $animals[$x] to give me 'dog' when $x=2  ?

I've tried all manner of apostrophes and escaped apostrophes, but no luck. Can anyone help me
Thanks for your time!
