FWIW, this doesn't work with the other superglobals (in function context): sean@sarcasm:~$ php -r '$_GET["foo"] = "bar"; function baz() { $get = "_GET"; return ${$get}["foo"]; } $get = "_GET"; echo ${$get}["foo"], baz(), "\n";' bar Notice: Undefined variable: _GET in Command line code on line 1 (this is documented)

Ouch... ok. But $_SCOPES[$foo] should work, shouldn't it?

$_SCOPE doesn't need to be that special... It can just be an object with overloaded array access... Whenever a dim is fetched for that object, check current_execute_data->prev->symbol_table for the variable and return that. -Sara
