Currently it can be done by code a swap function, like: function swap(&$a, &$b) { $tmp = $a; $a = $b; $b = $tmp; } I think that should be useful PHP do it alone, and simple to include it on code. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=70736&edit=1
