AW: [PHP] Variable Names

<?php $foo = "my_array"; $$foo = array(0 => "bar"); var_dump($my_array); ?> array(1) { [0]=> string(3) "bar" } Regards Frank -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Shaun [mailto:shaunthornburgh@hotmail.com] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 29.

I have tried $$array_name[1] = "test"; but to no avail. Here is my code /** * Adds any posted values from the application form to the session */ function add_form_to_session() { foreach ($_POST AS $key => $value) { if (is_array($value)) { foreach ($value AS $subkey => $subvalue) { $_SESSION['ses-app-form']->$key[$subkey] = $subvalue; //echo "value: ".$key."<br>"; } } else { $_SESSION['ses-app-form']->$key = $value; //echo "value: ".$key." = ".$value."<br>"; } } } Any Ideas?
