Bug description: Variable Variables not "setting" as expected
Defined two variable variables. Expected each to have a different value, both ended up with same
value.
$counter = 0;
$$countrycodefinal = "ctrycode" . $counter;
$$aproposfinal = "aproposCitizen" . $counter;
echo ${$countrycodefinal} . "<br>";
echo ${$aproposfinal} . "<p>";
I expected the value of $$countrycodefinal to be "ctrycode0" and the value of
$aaproposfinal to be "aproposCitizen0", instead BOTH ended up with the value of
"aproposCitizen0".
I've repeated this several times whenever I use more than one variable variable in the same
script.
