Question

I had a loop like that :

foreach($Fields as $Name => $Value){
    $Query->bindParam(':'.$Name, $Value, PDO::PARAM_STR);
}

Nothing complicated. However, each value was set to the last one in the array ($Fields).

How can I fix that ?

However, thanks to this guys. I found out that you need to pass the value by reference with a & before like that :

foreach($Fields as $Name => &$Value){
    $Query->bindParam(':'.$Name, $Value, PDO::PARAM_STR);
}

This was driving me nuts.

Actual quote from PHP.net :

This works ($val by reference):

<?php
foreach ($params as $key => &$val){
    $sth->bindParam($key, $val);
}
?>

This will fail ($val by value, because bindParam needs &$variable):

<?php
foreach ($params as $key => $val) {
    $sth->bindParam($key, $val);
}
?>
