thank you for pointing this one out. Who are the "php internals" and how could i contact them? This issue was rejected as bug recently.

* Thus wrote Marek Kilimajer ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
I just installed php5 (finaly :-)) and it does not throw any error nor warning. I think what you see is Notice, so the behavior did not change.
Here is the offending situation:
<?php
/* E_NOTICE: undefined index, returns false */ unset($a); echo is_array($a['foo']['asdf']);
/* returns false */ $a = 'asdf'; echo isset($a['foo']['asdf']);
/* returns false */ $a = array('foo' => 'asdf'); echo is_array($a['foo']['asdf']);
/* E_ERROR Invalid offset */ $a = 'asdf'; echo is_array($a['foo']['asdf']);
The last one is the biggie, the solution of course is to have something like:
if (isset($a['foo']['asdf']) && is_array($a['foo']['asdf']) {
This is a big BC issue, IMO, and might be worth asking internals why the E_ERROR is given vs. a E_WARNING.
