note 46118 added to function.substr

Is there any reason that this won't work? $test = "abcdefghijklmnop"; $var[0] = substr($test,4,8); $var[1] = substr_replace($test,********,4,8); print_r($var); Using PHP 4.3.1, the results of $var are [0] = a, [1] = e Weird. The way around it is: $var = array(0 => (substr($test,4,8)), 1=> (substr_replace($test,********,4,8))); Which gives proper results. Is this a current bug, or am I missing something obvious? ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+46118 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46118&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+46118&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
