New Comment:
or perhaps for a long piece of code that would be used a lot. this ugly
rectangle of code for example:
$server[$currServ][$currDB][$currGroup][$currUser]['access']=4;
$server[$currServ][$currDB][$currGroup][$currUser]['email']='';
$server[$currServ][$currDB][$currGroup][$currUser]['lastlogin']=0;
$server[$currServ][$currDB][$currGroup][$currUser]['projects']=array();
becomes
with($server[$currServ][$currDB][$currGroup][$currUser]){
$['access']=4;
$['email']='';
$['lastlogin']=0;
$['projects']=array()
}
kind of like a function that's created on the fly and then destroyed
when it's finished

Description:
------------
Visual Basic has a neat little code trick that I'd like to see in
PHP...
With object1
.property1="value"
.function1()
End With
And it can be nested. This is useful if you don't want to create a
variable to hold the return of, e.g. a function call that returns an
array, when you only need it for two or three lines.
Reproduce code:
---------------
with($nested_array['a_very_long_key']){
$[0]='apples';
with(function1($[1]->data))
echo template($['title'],$['content']);
}
// or
with $object1:
with $->property1:
function1($['key_of_property1']);
endwith
endwith
