Are you sure $name is an array. t appears to be a string and the $name[$i]
references one character in that string

Subject: [PHP] echo only displays first character


Here's an interesting problem.

The following only prints the first letter of the name

for ($i=0; isset($empid[$i]); $i++) {

    echo "$empid[$i] $name[$i]<br>";

}

But if I change the variable $name to $employeename throughout the script it
displays fine.

$empid[] and $name[] are both assigned earlier in the script by pulling data
from a MySQL database.

Is $name a reserved word or something? Anyone know why just changing the
array's name fixes the problem?

Thanks,

-Tom
