RE: foreach and multiple arrays

Why can't you create the arrays as associative arrays in the first place $fred[] = array("title"=>"Apple","value"=>"Red","size1"=>"10","size2"=>"20"); $fred[] = array("title"=>"Banana","value"=>"Yellow","size1"=>"10","size2"=>"20"); then foreach($fred as $thisfred) foreach ($thisfred as $key=>$value) ... do whatever ...; Tim ---------- From: Chris Aitken [SMTP:chris@ideal.net.au] Sent: 30 July 2001 02:40 To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: foreach and multiple arrays Hi guys, Something ive been working on and not having much success is this. I am writing a function, and I want to be able to feed it the following - function_name ( array("Apple","Red","10","20"), array("Banana","Yellow","10","20") ); now, basically what I want to be able to do is, take each array andlist each entry in the array as a variable...... eg.. (first loop run) $title="Apple"; $value="Red"; $size1="10"; $size2="20"; (first loop run) $title="Banana"; $value="Yellow"; $size1="10"; $size2="20"; etc. The function may have any number of entries (1 onwards) etc. I have played with foreach() and other variants, but I just cant seem to find the right combo of code to get it working. Any help would be appreciated.
