I do not know since when this is in PHP, but if you've got a recent PHP version, there is no need for array($object) any longer to use as replacement. try it on your own.

I still wouldn't reply on the array_splice() function, but as long as I see no errors with this, it's a great fix! @stephen:

If you store any complex objects in the array the array_splice() function will iterate through all the elements of the array and all of the elements for each of the objects in the array. This causes serious problems as it may insert something in the middle of a class (I just spent several days now trying to figure out why my classes were throwing errors). The array_insert() function is definitely what I would use. In fact, it would be a convenient function to have packaged with PHP. As many have said now, using array_splice() is very unreliable.
