Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves.
A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external
resources such as databases, etc. If the script requires a
database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates
all necessary tables, stored procedures etc.
Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

Please note that the arguments of function mostra_menu_date are NOT passed by
reference, so I think there should be the same behaviour when using
${"inizioperiodo".$num1} or $inizioperiodo as an argument, if they contain the
same value.

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. The function mostra_menu_date is located in file
php-residence/includes/funzioni.php
