RE: [PHP] Inherited Arrays within objects problem.

Sorry, no, the code I provided is an example of what I'm trying to do. I didn't actually compile it and now looking at it, yes, it would throw errors. It was just meant to illustrate the concept that if I define the array in one and instantiate two, I can add but don't seem to be able to remove items from the array. I've even tried building a new array and overwriting the array. inside the method removeItems, everything seems to be fine but once the method ends, the array reverts back to it's original contents. Sorry for the confusion.

Say what? It works on you machine? well, then I don't get how it could do _anything_. I had to change $this->myArray($name)=$stuff; to $this->myArray[$name]=$stuff; ^ ^ ^ ^ to get rid of a parse error. Then I got another one on unset($this-myArray($name)); adding the omitted > helped. ^^ Then I got another parse error at unset($this->myArray($name)); ^ ^ which is the same problem. Without those three bugs, the code worked.
