ID: 42233 Updated by: jani@php.net Reported By: hkb at hkb dot it -Status: Open +Status: Verified Bug Type: Variables related Operating System: Windows 2003 PHP Version: 5.2.4RC1 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-07 15:00:44] jani@php.net My not-so-elegant patch to fix the issue: http://pecl.php.net/~jani/patches/bug_42233.patch ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-07 14:57:21] jani@php.net This happens because extract() uses isalpha() for checking the validity of variable name. Fix brewing.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-08-07 13:11:23] hkb at hkb dot it Description: ------------ I Just updated PHP today from 5.2.0 to PHP 5.2.3 and found that extract() didnt work if the array containes the danish letters "æ", "ø" or "å"... Try running the code below ant you will see that $æ is empty when it should be "2"... I hope you will fix this bug for your next release... Reproduce code: --------------- $test[0] = array("e" => "2", "æ" => "2"); print_r($test[0]); extract($test[0]); echo "<br /><br />".$e." - ".$test[0]['e']; echo "<br /><br />".$æ." - ".$test[0]['æ']; Expected result: ---------------- Array ( [e] => 2 [æ] => 2 ) 2 - 2 2 - 2 Actual result: -------------- Array ( [e] => 2 [æ] => 2 ) 2 - 2 - 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=42233&edit=1
