Test script: --------------- we have 2 files file 1 ( arrayFile.php ) ---------------------------- <?php $languages = array('en','fr','es','it','ar','in','ru','jp'); ?> ---------------------------- file 2 ( index.php ) ---------------------------- <?php require_once('arrayFile.php'); $language = 'ar'; if(in_array($language,$languages)) { print "200 OK"; } else { print "404 not found"; } ?> Expected result: ---------------- i expect that in_array() function returns true while the value of $language is available in $languages directory ! Actual result: -------------- Returns nothing and provides this warning : "PHP Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in ..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63847&edit=1
