Hello, I've been trying to figure out on how I could evaluated this array and combine like items... here is the array.. it represents a shopping cart contents.. you'll notice that the first array is the same as the third... what I am trying to do is combine the quantity of the first array and the third... I am not asking from someone to program this for me... just for someone to give me a heads up on if there is a array function I could use. Thanks for any help! ------------- array example -------------------- $ARY_cart[] = array( 'product_id' => '123', 'sku' => 'DFBag-12', 'quantity' => '2', 'product_name' => 'Dog Food', 'unit' => '12 lbs. Bag', 'price' => '12.05' ); $ARY_cart[] = array( 'product_id' => '224', 'sku' => 'cFBag-6', 'quantity' => '1', 'product_name' => 'Cat Food', 'unit' => '8 lbs. Bag', 'price' => '4.25' ); $ARY_cart[] = array( 'product_id' => '123', 'sku' => 'DFBag-12', 'quantity' => '24', 'product_name' => 'Dog Food', 'unit' => '12 lbs. Bag', 'price' => '12.05' ); -- Joe Harman --------- Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
