Description:
------------
Hi, I opened a wrong thread last time, I didn't see the real bug. These bug happens with
foreach and pointer in to declaration of this foreach.
The type of last element of an array was modified from "array" into "&array"
and this create the problem when i use another iteraction in this array. I'm not good to
explain me but the code can do what I cannot.
Ps. You can see the difference on the last element in the two var_dumps: before and after the
foreach with the pointer.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$array = array(
array("field1" => "content1.1", "field2" =>
"content1.2", "field3" => "content1.3", ),
array( "field1" => "content2.1", "field2" =>
"content2.2", "field3" => "content2.3", ),
array( "field1" => "content3.1", "field2" =>
"content3.2", "field3" => "content3.3", ),
array( "field1" => "content4.1", "field2" =>
"content4.2", "field3" => "content4.3", )
);
echo "<pre>";
var_dump($array);
echo "\n";
foreach($array as &$element){
$element["field2"] = "content modified";
}
var_dump($array);
echo "\n";
foreach($array as $element){
foreach($element as $cell){
echo $cell."\t";
}
echo "\n";
}
echo "</pre>";
Expected result:
----------------
array(4) {
[0]=>
array(3) {
["field1"]=>
string(10) "content1.1"
["field2"]=>
string(10) "content1.2"
["field3"]=>

}

}
