Anyway, I don't really love the standard array() method recommended above, I wish array_push were working like the php documentation says it would. They claim this should work fine:

if you're going to use array_push() to insert a "$key" => "$value" pair into an array, it can be done using the following example:

    array_push($data[$key], $value);
    ...
    array_push($data[$key], $value);

[/quote]

First of all, 'they' in this case is refering to a user, not an author of the PHP project
Secondly, the description states

array_push() treats array as a stack, and pushes the passed variables onto the end of array . The length of array increases by the number of variables pushed.

which states the item gets added to the end of the array

It then goes on to state if you just want to add a single value, use th $array['key'] = ... notation

Hope this clears things up a bit
