Hi.
Quick set of eyes needed to see what I've done wrong...
The following is a reduced example ...
<?php
$Set = array();
$Entry = 'Set[1]';
$Value = 'Assigned';
$$Entry = $Value;
print_r($Set);
?>
The output is an empty array.
Examining $GLOBALS, I end up with an entries ...
[Set] => Array
(
)
[Entry] => Set[1]
[Value] => Assigned
[Set[1]] => Assigned
According to http://docs.php.net/manual/en/language.variables.basics.php,
a variable named Set[1] is not a valid variable name. The [ and ] are
not part of the set of valid characters.
In testing all the working V4 and V5 releases I have, the output is
always an empty array, so it looks like it is me, but the invalid
variable name is an issue I think.
Regards,
Richard.
NOTE: The above is a simple test. I'm trying to map in nested data to
over 10 levels.
For something like this, a string that looks like a nested array
reference, you might need to involve eval for it to "derive" that nested
array.
