In PHP 4.0 you can write the following:

...
$a='';
if ( empty($a['bla']) )
...

There are no errors or warnings, even if all warnings has been put on (as we do).

in PHP 4.1 this code complains the missing index 'bla':
Warning: Uninitialized string offset: 0 in  ....

Workarround:

if ( empty($a) and empty($a['bla']) ) ....

which seems not to be very logical. $a['bla'] must be empty, if $a is empty...
