note 61756 added to language.variables.scope

If you want to access a table row using $GLOBALS, you must do it outside string delimiters or using curl braces : $siteParams["siteName"] = "myweb"; function foo() { $table = $GLOBALS["siteParams"]["siteName"]."articles"; // OK echo $table; // output "mywebarticles" $table = "{$GLOBALS["siteParams"]["siteName"]}articles"; // OK echo $table; // output "mywebarticles" $table = "$GLOBALS[siteParams][siteName]articles"; // Not OK echo $table; // output "Array[siteName]article" $result = mysql_query("UPDATE $table ..."); } Or use global : function foo() { global $siteParams; $table = "$siteParams[siteName]articles"; // OK echo $table; // output "mywebarticles" $result = mysql_query("UPDATE $table ..."); } ---- Server IP: 64.246.30.37 Probable Submitter: 195.154.42.149 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+61756 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61756&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61756&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61756&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61756&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61756&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61756&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61756&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+61756&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
