Actually, the open curly bracket is misplaced in the "correct" syntax.
Caused me about an hour's pain. OUCH!

This is not the point, Yasou. Read the initial report.
Let Hartmut decide what to do with this.

The correct syntax is
<?php echo "${arr['index']}"; ?>
I think it is documented, if not. Please feel free to reopen as
documentation problem.

I would very much like to see this implemented soon. Since PHP has
said (at least in the manual) that it is trying to get away from
$array[index] syntax and into $array['index'] syntax, support for this
syntax directly in strings would help very much.

<?php echo "$array[index]"; ?>
works while
<?php echo "$array['index']"; ?>
gives
PHP Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or
`T_NUM_STRING' in - on line 1
the error message is not very helpfull (knowing the exact character
position in the line would help a little bit, but that's another story)
and the different syntax requirements for array indices within and
outside of strings are somtimes confusing for newbies, too
so "$array['index']" should be supported by the parser
PS: i know about "{$array['index']}", but that is not the point ...
