ID: 12719 Updated by: andrei Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Old Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Arrays related Operating System: Solaris 2.8 PHP Version: 4.0.5 New Comment: Prefixing it with a number would create an invalid variable name according to PHP rules, so that is why it fails. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-08-13 11:48:00] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Under PHP 3.0.16, I could use the extract function to append extract variables from an array and attach a prefix to each one. Often, this was a number. I could do it because "".$int made the integer $int into a string. However, under PHP 4.0.5, the same operation returns 0, even if I use settype to make $int into a string beforehand. The only solution I can find is to use something like: extract($array, EXTR_PREFIX_ALL, "x".$int) instead of extract($array, EXTR_PREFIX_ALL, "".$int) (In all of my examples, $array is the product of mysql_fetch_assoc()). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=12719&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]
