RE: [PHP] array headaches

what I think you've missed is your array starts with []['string'] remove []... $menu['name'] = ... should work ... unless your code is a little specific Sincerely, Maxim Maletsky Founder, Chief Developer PHPBeginner.com (Where PHP Begins) maxim@phpbeginner.com www.phpbeginner.com -----Original Message----- From: Matt Williams [mailto:matt@yewlands.com] Sent: Wednesday, February 21, 2001 11:57 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net; PHP_UK@egroups. com Subject: [PHP] array headaches Hi could anybody please help me get my head around the following. I get some url information from the database (title, url) I am trying to then put this into an array so I can pass it to the page to display a menu. so a) how do I get the data into the array. would this be the way to do it?? $menu = array(); while($db->next_record()) { $menu[]["name"] = $db->f("name"); $menu[]["url"] = $db->f("topic_id"); } which leads me onto b) how do I get the data back out. I can't test to see if the above works as I can't get at the data TIA M@ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
