Description:
------------
Hello,

following happens in PHP 4.3.6:
(1)
$browser = get_browser();
foreach ($browser as $key => $val) print "$key = $val, ";
delivers: ..., cookies = 1, ... (correctly)
(2)
$browser = get_browser();
print $browser["cookies"];
delivers NULL !!!! 
(3)
$browser = get_browser();
$arr = array();
foreach ($browser as $key => $val) $arr[$key] = $val;
print $arr["cookies"];
delivers 1.

I don't understand the NULL-result of (2).

Greetings Klaus K?hne

Sorry, there was no reason for my bug report: get_browser() returns an object, no array. But here is a little bug in the FOREACH-documentation:

"foreach works only on arrays, and will issue an error when you try to use it on a variable with a different data type or an uninitialized variable."
We ca see, it works on onjects, too.
