foreach OCIBindByName()

So I want to bind multiple values that are in an associative array I have this code foreach ($binds as $key=>$value) { OCIBindByName($this->m_cursor,":$key",$value,-1); } but it only seems to work for one value in the array, the array conetents would be something like $binds["id"] = 54; $binds["name"] = Dick; anyone get this to work or have any idea why it works when the array only has one thing in it?
