First, anything from a form is always a string, because there isn't anything 
that is past to your php script that says it is any other type.  Second, you 
can use "array_merge.

Hi,
i have a script which works with integers. i am taking the inputs from a 
form and now it defaults to string. a var_dump gives :

INPUTS :
array(2) {
   [0]=>
   array(2) {
     [0]=>
     string(1) "0"
     [1]=>
     string(1) "1"
   }
   [1]=>
   array(2) {
     [0]=>
     string(1) "1"
     [1]=>
     string(1) "1"
   }
}

but i need the values to be ints....

i tried :

foreach ($pieces as $k => $v) {
  $$k = $v;
  echo $k ."=". $v ."<br>";
//var_dump ($v);
  $cast = is_array ($v);
  if ($cast) {
   foreach ($v as $key => $val) {
    $$key = $val;
    echo $key ."=". $val ."<br>";

    $chk = is_int($val);
    echo "variable type : $chk <br>";
    if (!$chk) settype ($val,"integer");
   }
  }
}

but still i am not able to type juggle. i have missed something but i am 
unable to find out what. can someone plz identify what it is?
is there a better way, i am not sure i am coding in the right way...

also, i have two arrays, i want to merge them as :
new[0] = array1[0], array2[0], array2[1]
new[1] = array1[1], array2[1], array2[1]

how to do this, i am again not getting the results like expected.

Thz
Tracy
