*sigh* Why is PHP so lame... <?php class PHPISLAME { const STOP = 0; const START = 1; const PAUSE = 2; public static $STATES = array( STOP => 'Stopped', START => 'Started', PAUSE => 'Paused' ); public static $STATESHACK = array( 0 => 'Stopped', 1 => 'Started', 2 => 'Paused' ); } print_r(PHPISLAME::$STATES); print_r(PHPISLAME::$STATESHACK); ?> What is this crap!!?: Array ( [STOP] => Stopped [START] => Started [PAUSE] => Paused ) Array ( [0] => Stopped [1] => Started [2] => Paused )
