Re: echo'ing array contents through reference variable

echo ${$pdag[$n]}; // is also possible in case the [$n] is the index to pdag. Otherwise use this: echo ${$pdag}[$n]; - Tularis PS. This is basicly the same thing as Ernest said, but shorter... Ernest E Vogelsinger wrote:

    echo($$pdag[$n]);

be able to pull the string contents of the array? Or is there some extra needed when using referenced variable? --------------------[snip]-------------------- This is ambiguous: is it "$$pdag" indexed by "[$n]", or is it "$pdag[$n]" dereferenced? If you're using an interim variable you'll get what you need - either use (depends on your data layout which I don't know)

    $temp = $pdag[$n];
    echo $$temp;

or

    $temp = $$pdag;
    echo $temp[$n];
