Re: [PHP-DEV] Bizarre array key 'feature'? From: Andi Gutmans (andi <email protected>)
Date: 11/09/00

Just to reinforce this answer. You should always quote your strings. The
only reason why unquoted names work is for backwards compatibility.
Actually these are treated as constants and only if the constant doesn't
exist will it be used as a string and I think it outputs an E_NOTICE to
tell you to fix it :)
