Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php You want $value=${$tbl}['links'][$key] -- what you are trying is equivalent to $value=${$tbl['links'][$key]} Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-29 14:11:25] jkaufman at wamnet dot com Given this data structure: $user_master = array ('user_id'=>'user_id', 'user_name'=>'requester', 'user_login'=>'login_name', 'user_region_id'=>'user_region'); $user_master['links']['user_region_id']='region_master["region_id"]'; The idea is to have one or more entries to relate certain db fields to other tables. If $tbl='user_master and $key='user_region_id', then if I do this: if (array_key_exists('links', $$tbl))... I get a true response. The key exists. However, I cannot access the values using any of these contructs: $value=$$tbl['links'][$key] $values=array_values ($$tbl['links']) if (array_key_exists($key, $$tbl['links']) etc. etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=23876&edit=1
