title: Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in
body: <p>I am seeing the following error when executing my status script:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Warning: Cannot use a scalar value as an array in 
  
  $result[$array[$i*2]] = $array[$i*2+1];
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What am I doing wrong?
  I have included the full code below:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php 
  
  // Set the host and port 
  $host = "ip_goes_here"; 
  $port = port_goes_here; 
  
  // Open the socket connection to the server 
  $fp = fsockopen("udp://".$host, $port); 
  
  // Set the string to send to the server 
  $string = "\xff\xff\xff\xffgetinfo"; 
  
  // Set the socket timeout to 2 seconds 
  socket_set_timeout($fp, 2); 
  
  // Actually send the string 
  fwrite($fp, $string); 
  
  // Read the first 18 bytes to get rid of the header and do the error checking here 
  if(!fread($fp, 18)) { 
  
        die("Oh God, the pain!"); 
  } 
  
  // Get the status of the socket, to be used for the length left 
  $status = socket_get_status($fp); 
  
  // Read the rest 
  $info = fread($fp, $status['unread_bytes']); 
  
  // Explode the result of the fread into another variable 
  $array = explode("\\", $info); 
  
  // Loop through and create a result array, with the key being even, the result, odd 
  for($i = 0; $i &lt; count($array)/2; $i++) { 
  
      $result[$array[$i*2]] = $array[$i*2+1];
  } 
  
  // Print the result for error checking 
  print_r($result);     
  
  // Close the file pointer 
  fclose($fp); 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The line I mentioned is causing the errors. I have no idea what I am doing wrong here...</p>
