Reported at first with version 4 but am running latest v5 and changed version to reflect this. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-02-01 17:41:12] gerry dot rodman at ness-usa dot com Description: ------------ I cant seem to change the value of an array entry in a simple xml object if I use a variable for an index. But it changes OK if I use a constant. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $xmlstr = "<root><people><name>gerry</name><name>barbara</name></people></root>"; $xml = simplexml_load_string($xmlstr); $i = 0; $xml->people->name[$i] = "gerry changed"; // sorry, gerry doesnt change if variable is used as index (bug?) echo $xml->people->name[0]; echo "<br>"; $xml->people->name[0] = "gerry changed"; // gerry does change is a constant is supplied echo $xml->people->name[0]; ?> Expected result: ---------------- gerry changed gerry changed Actual result: -------------- gerry gerry changed <the first gerry should be gerry changed> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=27115&edit=1
