I believe that 2 dimensional arrays need to break out of the echo statement
to print the string. By the looks of it, you are printing $PRODUCTS[$here],
which is an array, which is why it just prints Array, and php thinks [$here]
is printing the [ and ] characters, with the variable $here inside. I like
to break out of all my strings for arrays just to be on the safe side of
things.

Subject: [nycphp-talk] need help understanding parsing difference


When $PRODUCTS[$here]["v1b"]="holster"
and $j="v1b"
echo "<a href=\"path/$PRODUCTS[$here][$j]\"... evaluates to path/Array[v1b]
which is meaningless
but echo "<a href=\"path/".$PRODUCTS[$here][$j]."\"... evaluates to
path/holster which is correct (or to be more precise, what I wanted).
Why this difference?  Thanks in advance.
