Hi all,

Pretty sure this can't be done, but thought I'd ask any way...

I have a function where the 3rd argument is an array..

function foo($a,$b,$c) {
echo $a.$b;
print_r($c);
}

Obviously the function does more than that, but anyway, I want the
calls to this function to look a little cleaner than this:

foo("cat","dog",array("a"=>"1","b"=>"2","c"=>"3"));

is there any other way to define the array?

foo("cat","dog",("a"=>"1","b"=>"2","c"=>"3")); or
foo("cat","dog",{"a"=>"1","b"=>"2","c"=>"3"}); would be nice (Ruby has
something like this), but I'm guessing it's not possible.

But, I'm asking just in case I've missed it in the docs.

TIA
