From: Operating system: PHP version: 5.3.8 Package: Scripting Engine problem Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Do not keep last element treated by foreach referenced
Description: ------------ As explained on http://ca.php.net/manual/en/control-structures.foreach.php : Warning Reference of a $value and the last array element remain even after the foreach loop. It is recommended to destroy it by unset(). In my opinion, PHP shouldn't keep the last element referenced by default, but at least, please provide a syntax which will not keep it.
