ID: 9307 Updated by: stas Reported By: david@php.net Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Assigned To: Comments: Right, this is how PHP works. That's not a bug, that's an intended behaviour. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-02-16 16:17:20] david@php.net <? $myarray['105'] = 'Hello'; $myarray[(string)'106'] = 'Goodbye'; var_dump($myarray); ?> array(2) { [105]=> string(5) "Hello" [106]=> string(7) "Goodbye" } It shouldn't be auto-converting array keys to numbers if they're already of a different type! Let's say I have an whole list of items as my array keys, and one just happens to be "able" to be converted into a number. Suddenly one of my array keys is no longer a string. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION! Do NOT reply to this email!
