Example: <?php define("foo", "donkey"); $test = array("foo"=>"orange", "bar"=>"purple"); echo $test[foo]; ?> Now, I think that should print nothing (or an error), because there is no index matching "donkey" (the value of the constant "foo"). But for some reason PHP looks for an array index matching the string "foo" as well, encouraging this kind of sloppy programming. Regards Simon Garner
