Reproduce code: --------------- // fails to work as expected $ar = array(1,2,3,4); foreach ($ar as &$v){ $v *= 2; } foreach($ar as $v){ echo $v . '<br>'; } // works correctly $ar = array(1,2,3,4); foreach ($ar as &$o){ $o *= 2; } foreach($ar as $o){ echo $o . '<br>'; } Expected result: ---------------- 2 4 6 8 Actual result: -------------- 2 4 6 6 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41603&edit=1
