Be aware that using array_pop on an associative array that uses a numeric string as a key changes the key: $stack= array("12" => "green", "54" => "brown", "672" => "blue"); print_r($stack); $fruit = array_pop($stack); print_r($stack); Results of execution: Array ( [12] => green [54] => brown [672] => blue ) Array ( [0] => green [1] => brown ) However, if there is a non-numeric character in the key, the key will be maintained: $stack= array("g1" => "green", "b1" => "brown", "b2" => "blue"); print_r($stack); $fruit = array_pop($stack); print_r($stack); Results of execution: Array ( [g1] => green [b1] => brown [b2] => blue ) Array ( [g1] => green [b1] => brown ) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-pop.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+36765 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+36765&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+36765&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
