Well, that's what lets it forget the current position in the array.

That's what I did.

Well, I did this by reimplementing the next(), prev(), current(), end()
and reset() methods of an array within my class, since I didn't see a
method in php's array-functions which would return the current pointer
position inside the array. That's a lot of overhead in my class now, but
at least it works.

I'll do that.

Greetings and thanks, Nathan, for replying!
