RE: [PHP] What am I not understanding about $GLOBALS['myvar'] vs global $myvar?

>Actually I didn't. ;-) >$GLOBALS[$key] is incorrect and depricated AFAIK. >$GLOBALS['$key'] (with the single quotes) is the proper way to write these Wouldn't it need to be $GLOBALS["$key"] because single quotes tell the parser not to expand variables? I think you are misinterpreting the part of the manual that says "You should always use quotes around an associative array index." Even though a variable may contain a string it is not a string and therefore does not need quoting because there is not danger of it being interpreted as a constant. Look at the manual page on arrays, it shows arrays with variable indices without quotes. http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php
