Access returned array directly - El Forum - 04-08-2010

I am using the calendar class and its function 'adjust_date()'.

It returns an array depending on what I put in:

Code:
Array ( [month] => 04 [year] => 2010 ) 1

This is how I get to it so far:

Code:
$date = $this->calendar->adjust_date($month, $year);

$adjusted_month = $date['month'];

How can I access the return array straight off the bat? I was thinking of something like this:

Code:
$date = $this->calendar->adjust_date($month, $year)->['month'];

This doesn't work... any ideas?

Edit:
I think you will have to use the temp variable. Someone asked the same question here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13109/php-access-array-value-on-the-fly

Ah well, one more line of code won't hurt.
