You mean that this: $a['x'] = 'one'; $a['y'] = 'two'; $a['z'] = 'three'; list($x, $y, $z) = $a; ...should work like this? $x = current(each($a)); $y = current(each($a)); $z = current(each($a)); Given that numeric indices doen't necessarily indicate element positions, I don't see why that your request wouldn't be reasonable. -- +----------------------------------------------------------------+ |Torben Wilson <torben@php.net> Adcore Finland| |http://www.coastnet.com/~torben http://www.adcore.com| |Ph: 1.604.709.0506 torben@adcore.com| +----------------------------------------------------------------+
