Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Description: Transmuting indices
Well, you see, I can't reproduce it without database code. Here's a smaller version that
emulates the data structures:
"""
<?php
$row1=Array(
0 => "Advertising Space",
"KindNm" => "Advertising Space",
1 => "",
"SubKindNm" => "",
2 => "",
"SubSubKindNm" => "",
3 => 100,
"GrantKindID" => 100
);
$kind=Array(
"Advertising Space" => Array(
"" => Array(
0 => 100,
1 => 160
)
)
);
print("<pre>");
print_r($kind[$row1["KindNm"]][$row1["SubKindNm"]]);
print("</pre>");
?>
"""
The problem: it works perfectly.
Here's the actual trouble code:
"""
<?php
error_reporting(2047);
...
while ($row1=mssql_fetch_array($result1))
{
$val=$row1["GrantKindID"];
if (empty($row1["SubSubKindNm"]))
{
print_r($kind[$row1["KindNm"]][$row1["SubKindNm"]]);
if (isset($kind[$row1["KindNm"]][$row1["SubKindNm"]]))
{
$k=$kind[$row1["KindNm"]][$row1["SubKindNm"]];
$val=$k[0].":".$k[1];
};
};
?>
<option value="<?=$val?>"><?=$val?></option>
<?php
};
?>
"""
$kind is also much larger than the small one given above, but I'm not convinced that that has
anything to do with this problem.

Please provide a reduced code fragment (<15 lines) producing
this behaviour.
Put no database queries etc. in it to ensure that we can
reproduce it easily.

(FYI: actually using 2000.10.27 CVS)
Here's a good one.
I have an array $kind:
"""
Array
(
[Advertising Space] => Array
(
[] => Array
(
[0] => 100
[1] => 160
)
)
...
)
"""
I pull a record ($row1) from an MS-SQL table (via Sybase-CT):
"""
Array
(
[0] => Advertising Space
[KindNm] => Advertising Space
[1] =>
[SubKindNm] => // This is a null string: ""; strlen() gives 0
[2] =>
[SubSubKindNm] =>
[3] => 100
[GrantKindID] => 100
)
"""
I then do a 'print_r($kind[$row1["KindNm"]][$row1["SubKindNm"]]);':
"""
<br>
<b>Warning</b>: Undefined offset: 0 in <b>/path/to/script/script.php3</b>
on line <b>(line with print_r)</b><br>
"""
I know that it's the second index because
'print_r($kind[$row1["KindNm"]]);' works just fine.
So somewhere along the line "" is being changed to 0.
