PHP array_merge_recursive with numeric keys

[nardino]

So I'm suppose to build a multidimensional array dynamically from a text file, and everything works perfectly except that the numeric keys are screwing me over...The text file looks something like this: \[code\]a=1b.c=2b.d.0.e=3b.d.0.f=4b.d.1.e=5b.d.1.f=6\[/code\]As the array_merge_recursive doesn't work with numeric keys, the output is like:\[code\]array(2) { ["a"]=> string(3) "1" ["b"]=> array(2) { ["c"]=> string(3) "2" ["d"]=> array(4) { [0]=> array(1) { ["e"]=> string(9) "3" } [1]=> array(1) { ["f"]=> string(4) "4" } [2]=> array(1) { ["e"]=> string(8) "5" } [3]=> array(1) { ["f"]=> string(9) "6" }}}}\[/code\]Is there any easy solution to make the output like...?\[code\]array(2) { ["a"]=> string(3) "1" ["b"]=> array(2) { ["c"]=> string(3) "2" ["d"]=> array(2) { [0]=> array(2) { ["e"]=> string(9) "3" ["f"]=> string(4) "4" } [1]=> array(3) { ["e"]=> string(9) "5" ["f"]=> string(4) "6"}}}}\[/code\]Thanks
