  1. Ref. p.164 "Creating Multidimensional Arrays" Wondering why I keep getting "Notice"s about "Array to string conversion". I think this is covered in the book but I can't seem to find the place right now (or, I'm being lazy). I'm using Notepad v. 6.3 with XAMPP v. 3.1.0.3.1.0 with PHP v.5.4.7 and testing in Firefox (latest). Here's the "error": -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Notice: Array to string conversion in C:\xampp\htdocs\test\multidimensional_arrays\books.php on line 49 PHP VQS: Array -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think it's covered on p.64 Error Reporting and has something to do with E_NOTICE settings. But, the program runs OK (as per the output below). I'm just wondering why it reports this "notice", or if I'm doing something wrong. Is it really performing an array-string conversion? If anything, it should non-report that I'm doing a normal, regular array-value output, where the value happens to be a string. Should I turn this "notice" off? error_reporting(0); The only slightly-odd thing I noticed while coding (using Notepadd++ v.6.3) is it keeps reporting xml:lang="en" as an unrecognized tag and colors it differently as per NPP's coloring scheme, i.e. <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"> Lets paste something from the PHP Manual, just for fun: Note: Enabling E_NOTICE during development has some benefits. For debugging purposes: NOTICE messages will warn you about possible bugs in your code. For example, use of unassigned values is warned. It is extremely useful to find typos and to save time for debugging. NOTICE messages will warn you about bad style. For example, $arr[item] is better to be written as $arr['item'] since PHP tries to treat "item" as constant. If it is not a constant, PHP assumes it is a string index for the array. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My output: PHP:Groceries and Arrays - groceries.php The third chapter of my first book is HTML Forms and PHP.
