note 51081 added to function.array-merge

"If the input arrays have the same string keys, then the later value for that key will overwrite the previous one." Huh? What the hell does it mean? According to what does a function know that one variable is "later" than another? Or more to the point, how am I supposed to know which of any two congruent variables it will treat as such? ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-merge.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+51081 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51081&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51081&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51081&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51081&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+51081&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+51081&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
