Re: makeing an array

Example of an Array: $my_first_array = array(1 => 'first', 2 => 'second', 3 => 'third'); You can now access these like so: echo $my_first_array[1]; etc etc of if you had this: $my_first_array = array('first_name' => 'Philip', 'last_name' => 'Newman'); You could do this: echo $my_first_array['first_name']; The thing to remember is that array's start at 0 "see below!!" (I started at 1 at the top to make it easier). You can also make an array like so: $first[] = 'Philip'; $first[] = 'John'; $first[] = 'Paul'; Now you can simply do: echo $first[0]; // this could output 'Philip'; You can then look at multi dimensional etc... I trust this get's you on your way.
