PHP Bug Type: Variables related
Bug description: Variable variables don't work with multi-arrays
Description:
------------
The Variable variables in PHP don't work properly with multi-arrays.
You should be able to display the value from an array key by joining the
multi-array variable and the keys.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$results['rss']['channel']['item'][0]['title'] = "Hello there";
$a = "results";
$b = "['rss']['channel']['item'][0]['title']";
echo ${$a.$b};
Expected result:
----------------
I expect it to display "Hello there";
Actual result:
--------------
Undefined variable: results['rss']['channel']['item'][0]['title']
