Hi, thank you both for the explanation. It's clear why I get the "undefined",
these variables *are* for various reasons undefined at the moment. However,
there are NO arrays involved, f.i. "KundeRemark" is NOT an array it's a simple
string variable created by
$KundeRemark = stripslashes($val["KundeRemark"]);
which is a field from a SQL result which currently doesn't exist because I
changed the connection to a different db where this field is named
differently. So, it's undefined, fine. But why is it called "undefined index"
where it should be "undefined variable" ?
