I have an php array and I want to insert an element with the index -1 and value "none" at first position if possible.Bassicaly I use this code from cakephp

Code:

$customers = $this->Machine->customer->find
             (
    'list',
   array
   (
   'fields' => array('CUSTOMER_ID', 'CUSTOMER_NAME'),
    'order' => 'CUSTOMER_NAME ASC',
    'recursive' => -1
     )
             );

I used the array_push() but it did not work as I wanted

You get 2 types of array in PHP. One uses an index going from 0,1,2,3... and the other uses a string as the index. The code you supply is using an associative array (using a string to index the array) but you now seem to want to use a numeric index ie -1 (which is outside the allowed range).

A quick and dirty solution would be to use the string "-1" as the index. A better solution might be to think about why you even need a -1 entry in your array. It doesn't make much sense to me but then I'm not writing your code
