Alternatives to Pass both Key and Value By Reference:

Question

Can someone explain to me why you can\'t pass a key as reference?

Ex:

if(is_array($where)){
    foreach($where as &$key => &$value){
              


        

Answer 1

why is it a problem to do that? Make it a function. A function takes an input and gives an output. Your function input will be your "unsecured" array. Your output will be the result of securing the array.

Then you just do

$where = secureMyArray($where);

That's why you have the ability to make functions...
