PHP5's get_defined_vars() return's $GLOBALS, which is a recursive array, which will cause count() to crash. Moving this as a documentation bug. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-08-29 23:42:53] nospamplease at veganismus dot ch Description: ------------ it seems that you cant use any recursive function on get_defined_vars() in PHP5. <? $arr = get_defined_vars(); echo 'Number of Defined Vars: '; echo count($arr,COUNT_RECURSIVE); ?> in PHP4 this will output some integer like "199" as expected. in PHP5 this doesnt even output any error report. I just get a "connection closed by server" message or the like. When changing line 3 to <? echo count($arr); // nonrecursive ?> it outputs something like "7" (which seems to be correct). also if i use any multi-dimensional array instead of get_defined_vars() the result will be correct. Reproduce code: --------------- <? $arr = get_defined_vars(); echo 'Number of Defined Vars: '; echo count($arr,COUNT_RECURSIVE); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Number of Defined Vars: 199 Actual result: -------------- The result is nothing (no errormessage by PHP5 or Apache2) so the acctualy displayed message depends on the browser: Modzilla: The document contains no data. Opera: connection closed by server M$IE: Page Cannot Be Displayed ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29885&edit=1
