foreach has its own scope?

okay. what i'm trying to do is something like
[code]foreach ($suits as $b)
{
foreach($types as $a)
{
global $names;
$names = $names + array($a . " of " . $b);
}
}[/code]
so I could make a deck of cards. But for some reason, when I spit it out at the end, $names has the same value as it did when it started.

... any ideas?

has globel $names the repeated varable.

Because you are performing arithmetic to $names variable. The + sign is an Addition operater, You can not perform arithmetic to strings. Instead I think you will want to concate the two to gether like so:
$names .= array($a . " of " . $b);
