The same thing happens here. As you know, 'global $foo' creates a local variable, $foo, which is a reference to the $foo variable in the global scope. If you assign-reference to the local $foo, the reference to the global $foo will be broken. So, what's the way around it, use $GLOBALS["foo"]?

Yes. That's the consistent way of doing things with the current object model. Zeev Zeev Suraski <zeev@zend.com> CTO & co-founder, Zend Technologies Ltd. http://www.zend.com/
