If this is not a bug, then why does the code work as I expected it to in PHP 5.0.0RC1? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-25 15:50:15] [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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 The string key when accessing a portion of another string is converted to an integer. Because it is a string it gets converted to 0, so you end up accessing the 1st letter of the 1st word. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-03-24 13:39:10] rattray at purdue dot edu Description: ------------ using isset() to detect the existence of array subkeys give a false positive. Also, trying to print the content of said non-existing keys gives the first character of the parent key! Reproduce code: --------------- $aArray = array(); $aArray["key"] = "value"; print("<PRE>".print_r($aArray, true)."</PRE>"); if (isset($aArray)) print("Array exists<BR>"); else print("Array does not exist.<BR>"); if (isset($aArray["key"])) print("Array[key] exists, value = '".$aArray["key"]."'<BR>"); else print("Array[key] does not exist.<BR>"); if (isset($aArray["key"]["subkey"])) print("Array[key][subkey] exists, value = '".$aArray["key"]["subkey"]."'<BR>"); else print("Array[key][subkey] does not exist.<BR>"); Expected result: ---------------- Array ( [key] => value ) Array exists Array[key] exists, value = 'value' Array[key][subkey] does not exist Actual result: -------------- Array ( [key] => value ) Array exists Array[key] exists, value = 'value' Array[key][subkey] exists, value = 'v' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27677&edit=1
