Re: [PHP] Global Arrays ?
The first thing that comes to mind - if you say it's working with local variables
- is trying to set it local prior to using it (i.e. insert a
"$loc_months=$g_months" just below "global $g_months" and use the local variable
from then on).
It may be a bug in your PHP - walking an array with each probably sets some
internal position marker which may be buggy for your very situation (global
variable in local function - something like that).

Thanks for that. IT appears to be a problem with the function itself, as
the array is full of stuff.
I guess the next question is, what am i doing wrong here, that lets it
work with a local array but not a global one ?
function html_option_months($selected_month) {
global $g_months;
echo(serialize($g_months));
$result = "";
while (list($key, $val) = each($g_months)) {
$result .= html_option($key,$val, ($selected_month == $key));
}
return $result;
}

Re: [PHP] Global Arrays ?
Sounds quite odd - you may try an "echo(serialize($g_months))" in the function and see what you get... It may be that the code generating the option box has problems - this way you make sure $g_months is empty indeed.

[PHP] Global Arrays ?
Hi all, I've got an array in the global scope called $g_months which oddly enough contains the names of the months. Now when I try to import this into a function as global $g_months; it doesn't work. When php prints out the array as an option box I just wind up with no options. Any ideas why this is the case ? Am I doing something wrong ?
