Bug Type:         Documentation Problem
Bug description:array_two_key_swap wrong

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.array
---

User note bellow array() manual dated "10-Oct-2009 01:39" showing function
array_two_key_swap is misleading and will cost other users time, as it is
not working in the way it says - tranferring array[k1][k2] into
array[k2][k1], it only works for integer k2 keys which is wrong. I entered
simplier function as a new note but it was deleted. I don't understand why
misleading code is kept online with PHP manual and proper fix is deleted.

Test script:
---------------
It is obvious. No need to show it here.

Proper code is here:

<?php
function array_two_key_swap( $a ) {  

	$ra = array();
	while (list($k1,$v1) = each ($a)) {
		while (list($k2,$v2) = each ($v1)) {
			$ra[$k2][$k1]=$v2;
		}
	}
	return $ra;
} 
?>
