RE: [PHP] Re: Associative vs normal arrays

All arrays in PHP are associative; we sometimes use integers to refer to them, but the order of the array internally is not necessarily the same as the integers; indeed, any array can have "holes" in them. So the question is moot. "There are no different indexed and associative array types in PHP, there is only one array type, which can both contain integer and string indices." - http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php Mark C. > > Is there a way to determine if an array is associative or not?
