#22278 [NEW]: Improvement of foreach function(?)

From: mazanek at abeo dot cz Operating system: windows PHP version: 4.2.3 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: Improvement of foreach function(?) this is old issue #3074 - do you support foreach by reference? I'm using PHP Version 4.2.2. Having multidimensional array - $multi_array. I would like to change the $multi_array from place marked **HERE** foreach($multi_array AS $multi_key=>$multi_array_item) { foreach($multi_array_item["another_array"] AS $key=>$value) { if($value=="asdfg") { **HERE** } ... } } I have to do it using: $multi_array[$multi_key]["another_array"][$key]=$new_value - - - - - - - - It would be nice to use "&" to change the $multi_array: foreach($multi_array AS $multi_key=>&$multi_array_item) { foreach($multi_array_item["another_array"] AS &$value) { if($value=="asdfg") { $value=$new_value; $multi_array_item["value_have_changed"]=true; }else { $multi_array_item["value_have_changed"]=false; } ... } } Is it possible to implement this to new version of PHP?
