I ran into something when using an expanded version of the example of pbaltz at NO_SPAM dot cs dot
NO_SPAM dot wisc dot edu below.
This could be somewhat confusing although it is perfectly clear if you have read the manual
carfully. It makes the fact that references always point to the content of a variable perfectly
clear (at least to me).
<?php
$a = 1;
$c = 2;
$b =& $a; // $b points to 1
$a =& $c; // $a points now to 2, but $b still to 1;
echo $a, " ", $b;
// Output: 2 1
?>
