From: Operating system: linux/windows PHP version: 5.3.2 Package: Variables related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:errors using variable variables as function arguments
Description: ------------ This problem happens with php 5.3, on 5.2 doesn't show up. Tried on linux (default php 5.3.2 packages from ubuntu 10.04 beta1) and windows (php 5.3.2 from easyphp). Sometimes when I use a variable variable (name of the variable in curly brackets) as a function argument the script doesn't work as expected (execution time or memory limits are reached). This happens only in a few places in my script (most times the same function with same arguments works fine) and in those places if I replace the variable variables with normal variables it works normally. Test script: --------------- You can download my script from: http://www.digitaldruid.net/download/php-residence_1.2.2.zip Install it (mysql, postgresql or sqlite needed), once you get to "main menu" click on "configure and customize" --> "internet templates" --> "availability template", this page will stop loading when the affected function is reached. This function is called (twice) in file php-residence/crea_modelli.php from line 215: mostra_menu_date("./dati/selectperiodi$anno_modello.1.php","inizioperiodo$num1",${"inizioperiodo".$num1},"","",$id_utente,$tema); echo " ".mex("al",$pag)." "; mostra_menu_date("./dati/selectperiodi$anno_modello.1.php","fineperiodo$num1",${"fineperiodo".$num1},"","",$id_utente,$tema); if I replace the above code with: $inizioperiodo = ${"inizioperiodo".$num1}; $fineperiodo = ${"fineperiodo".$num1}; mostra_menu_date("./dati/selectperiodi$anno_modello.1.php","inizioperiodo$num1",$inizioperiodo,"","",$id_utente,$tema); echo " ".mex("al",$pag)." "; mostra_menu_date("./dati/selectperiodi$anno_modello.1.php","fineperiodo$num1",$fineperiodo,"","",$id_utente,$tema); then the page loads fine.
