  <para>
   This is used to append an element to an assigned array. If you append
   to a string value, it is converted to an array value and then
   appended to. You can explicitly pass name/value pairs, or associative
   arrays containing the name/value pairs. If you pass the optional third
   parameter of true, the value will be merged with the current array
   instead of appended.
