Objects and Arrays Conversion

Hello All, I was stuck with this issue. So just felt the need to reach out to other strugglers. May be people might enjoy this: Here is the code for object to array and array to object conversion: function object_2_array($data) { if(is_array($data) || is_object($data)) { $result = array(); foreach ($data as $key => $value) { $result[$key] = object_2_array($value); } return $result; } return $data; } function array_2_object($array) { $object = new stdClass(); if (is_array($array) && count($array) > 0) { foreach ($array as $name=>$value) { $name = strtolower(trim($name)); if (!empty($name)) { $object->$name = $value; } } } return $object; } have fun !!!!! Thanks
