Re: Support negative indexes for arrays and strings

The main question is what happens with "foo"[-4] or ['x'][-2]. > And then one would expect some rather complex logic to compute -N for > $var[-N] I don't see much of complex logic here, but $a[2] = 'a' would create a new array element if it does not exist, while $a[-2] can't. Not a big issue, but somewhat inconsistent I guess. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227
