Happy birthday, Array! You're Birthday[x] years old!

[SkyHog]

Home screen shows todays birthdays as "Array"

I actually looked for a user named array before it clicked. lol

I still don't get it.

I still don't get it.

My guess is that vBulletin uses an array of objects to store birthday information.

In most programming languages, to refer to an array, you'd use:

arrayName[x] where x is the record number you wanted to bring up.

The main screen says "Array" in the birthday field when there's no birthdays on a given day. I'm guessing that's why (did someone actually name an array "array"?)

Nick,

If you treat an array in PHP as if it were a variable (you don't specify a key) you'll get a response of "Array". For example the following:

<?php
$names[]='nick';
$names[]='steve';

echo($names);
?>

Would return "Array".
Of course if you loop through it, you can get the desired result

<?php
$names[]='nick';
$names[]='steve';

foreach($names as $name) {
   echo("$name </ br>");
}
?>

Would return:
nick
steve

I'll take a look at it when I have a chance....
