Array_merge_recursive not merging correctly (php)

The following 2 array's are not merging right at [2015] like they're supposed to. instead it creates [2016] like in the last example.

code i'm using :

$merge = array_merge_recursive($array, $current);

first array: ($current)

Array
(
    [Particulier] => Array
        (
            [Weekend] => Array
                (
                    [2015] => Array
                        (
                            [06] => Array
                                (
                                    [0] => Array
                                        (
                                            [id] => 111
                                            [startDate] => 12-06-2015
                                            [endDate] => 15-06-2015
                                            [price] => 920
                                        )
                                )
                        )
                )
        )
)

second array: ($array)

Array
(
    [Particulier] => Array
        (
            [Weekend] => Array
                (

                                (
                                    [0] => Array
                                        (
                                            [id] => 90
                                            [startDate] => 01-05-2015

From what you describe you will have to work with an associated array (using a string index like "2015") and not a numeric index (like 2015).

I would also suggest using a unique key as the index for the events and to use the alternative function array_replace_recursive to prevent PHP from creating any nested arrays (see http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-replace-recursive.php)
