Note Submitter: Oderik ---- As already mentioned by John, there seems to be a problem when using array braces inside the variable name. $var_name_a = 'my_array[1]'; $var_name_b = 'my_array[2]'; $$var_name_a = 'foo'; $$var_name_b = 'bar'; var_dump($my_array); // Output: NULL Any suggestions for a work-around? I would like to generate a tree structure using variable variables.
