Leaving out the global declaration allows the output to display properly. I have also had segmentation faults caused by similar routines, but have been unable to reproduce this outside of the full program. Reproduce code: --------------- $x = array("test", "55"); global ${$x[0]}; ${$x[0]} = $x[1]; echo "Test: $test<br>\n";; Expected result: ---------------- Displays: Test: Actual result: -------------- Should display: Test: 55 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=35470&edit=1
