No, the behaviour hasn't changed. PHP4 also treats the fielname without
quotes as a constant. Undefined constants that a script tries to access
are implicitly/conveniently defined to have their name as content so the
script works as expected. And it still works in PHP5. You just use an
installation with more strict error_reporting. Have a look at
configuring the error reporting settings or (better) change your script
to use strings like in $row['fieldname'].
