Bug description: Use of $$var and arrays
Description:
------------
I'm trying to use variable variables to build up an array in a recursive
function, but this doesn't seem to be possible.
the following short amount of code illustrates the problem.
$str="array";
${$str}[1]="one";
print_r ($$str);
echo "<br>";
print_r ($array);
.............Output..........
Array ([1]=>one)
Array ([1]=>one)
As expected,
However
$str="array[1]";
$$str="One";
print_r ($$str);
echo "<br>";
print_r ($array);
............Output..........
One
No output, ie $array has no value.
Although $str has the value array[1], $$str is not the same as $array[1],
as I believe it should be. (Or needs to be to get my function to work)
