ermm Arrays are broken?

Hi all,

Okay its about 2:30am here so maybe I'm REALLY missing something here
but, well this code returns a blank page!

$a[] = 'HELLO PHP, WHATS WRONG?';
print($a[0]);

any ideas why this could be happening??

Thanks!
NK

Maybe you're reusing the array?

<?php
$a[] = 'zero';
unset($a[0]); // should be unset($a);
$a[] = 'one';
print($a[0]);
?>

Hrrrrm, nope, that was actually all that was in the file.,.. I was
trying to demonstrate an Array to a friend and that was the problem...
....except for <?php ?> , you saw the complete script :/

I think I saw something about arrays starting at 1 somewhere ... but
can't find it now. What version of PHP are you using?

Try :

<?PHP
error_reporting(E_ALL);
$a[] = 'HELLO PHP, WHATS WRONG?';
print_r($a);
?>

It should show the text in there and what key it's at.
You're sure you didn't type WHAT'S WRONG instead of WHATS WRONG?
