Quote array keys.. ALWAYS quote them:
$cat[$blah]['name'] = $whatever
Otherwise PHP will think [name] is trying to use a constant and
substitute a value accordingly.

You did something wrong ;) If you don't quote the array keys it'll
assume a constant, which in turn would assume a 1 which will give you
the first character of the string.

Hi Richard,
that sounds absolutly plausible and I now qoted it the way you recommended.
However I do get the same result. Still the first letter.
Any other ideas?
Thank you in advance,
Merlin
