You changed the wrong thing, $string[0] still works. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ php -r '$foo = "abc"; var_dump($foo[0]);' string(1) "a" Also, the second example doesn't seem to produce a fatal error. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ php -r '$link = ""; var_dump(count($link["two"]));' Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in Command line code on line 1 int(1) [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ php -v PHP 5.1.0-dev (cli) (built: Dec 28 2004 20:03:13) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-29 16:43:35] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better. I believe it is already documented in Backward Incompatible Changes under Migrating from PHP 4 to PHP 5 in the sentence "Illegal use of string offsets causes E_ERROR instead of E_WARNING." However, I have added this to the String Type chapter: "However, this syntax is deprecated as of PHP 4 and produces fatal error in PHP 5." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-26 22:29:16] [EMAIL PROTECTED] opening.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-26 20:29:13] [EMAIL PROTECTED] THen it should be documented. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-26 20:08:32] schmad at miller-group dot net Perhaps it isn't a bug, but it does break backward compatibility with 4.3. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-12-26 11:35:15] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php This is expected, and not a bug. It doesn\'t make sense to do this at all either. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
