Set variable to array element

Question

I need to set a variable = to an array element. $var = $ary[1]; does not work. ary[1]= "test". If that helps

You might need to be more specific about what you're trying to do and the results of what you've tried. $var = $ary[1] is certainly a valid assignment. — John Flatness

hello Dan first echo $ary[1] and see that it is having the value? — Awais Qarni

PHP arrays are zero indexed, that may be your problem

    $ary = array("test");
    $var = $ary[0]

$var == "test"

confirm that your first initialize the array variable before using it like:

$ary=array();

Try this:

$ary[]= $var;

must use $ sign for var/arrays in php and you don't require 1 if a single value is inserted..
