Also, even though [0] and ['id'] initially contain the same value, they are
not bound together in any way. You may be able to accomplish what you
desire by using references. (See the manual section on references for more
information.
ie. $q->data[0]["id"] =& $q->data[0][0];

Subject: [PHP-DEV] how-to get array[0] and array["name"] to actually
reference only 1 value?
