This loop puts the elements into the array you were looking for. If the values are fetched from a database you can i.e. do something like this: while ($tmp = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $line->y_data['XYZ40'][] = $tmp; } The principle is the same. Use [] to append new values. -- Øyvind Grønnesby I wonder if there is another word for synonym
