Should make this fact more clear in documentation to aleviate some problems such as illustrated below: Reproduce code: --------------- <?php extract(array('test' => 123), EXTR_PREFIX_ALL, 'prefix'); echo $prefixtest; ?> Expected result: ---------------- 123 Actual result: -------------- undefined variable $prefixtest (it's really $prefix_test) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34534&edit=1
