New Comment:
That sounds like a very weak excuse to change the working of the
language and causing me and probably many others many hours of
debugging.

This behaviour is undefined in all languages including PHP.

Description:
------------
When I have a loop
for($i=0; $i<$size;)
{ $myarr[$i][3] = $i++;
}
PHP will first take the assigned value, then increase $i and that use
the new $i to set the array. So the first loop will do:
$myarr[1][3]=0;
I come from PHP4 and there this worked correctly (first line
$myarr[0][3]=0;).
I am using XAMPP and as a consequence PHP 5.2.1. But I couldn't find
this in the bug database so I suppose it has not been solved.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$myarr = array();
$myarr[0] = array("A","B","C");
$myarr[1] = array("D","E","F");
$myarr[2] = array("G","H","I");
$size = sizeof($myarr);
echo "The size of myarr is ".$size."<br>";
for($i=0; $i<$size;)
{ $myarr[$i][3] = $i++;
}
for($i=0; $i<$size; $i++)
{ echo "Record ".$i." = ".$myarr[$i][3]."<br>";
}
echo "The size of the array is now ".sizeof($myarr);
Expected result:
----------------
The size of myarr is 3
Record 0 = 0
Record 1 = 1
Record 2 = 2
The size of the array is now 3
Actual result:
--------------
The size of myarr is 3
Record 0 =
Record 1 = 0
Record 2 = 1
The size of the array is now 4
