>
> $blah = array('a', 'b', 'c');
> var_dump($blah);
> array_walk($blah, 'change');
> var_dump($blah);

> ?>

> Go to http://valsignalandet.com/aablah.php and see the results..
> It does NOT

> However, yours does (go to http://valsignalandet.com/aablah2.php) Here is

>  <?php
>  $arr = array('a', 'b', 'c');
>  var_dump($arr);
>  function change(&$array, $index) {
>  $array = 'I have changed you!';
>  }
>
>  array_walk($arr, 'change');
>  var_dump($arr);
>  ?>
>
>
> Why does yours work and mine does not, exact same logic only different
> methodology, one returns a result, the other does not..  That is
> not enough
> proof to just say "Good job PHP Team" and declare array_walk saves the
> universe from eternal peril.
