note 59693 added to language.types.array

if you need to check a multidimensonal array for values it's handy to store it like $ar['key1'][0] $ar['key2'][0] $ar['key3'][0] $ar['key1'][1] $ar['key2'][1] $ar['key3'][1] and to loop the keys. Fill the array (from a database-request): while($rf=mysql_fetch_row($rs)) { $nr=$rf[0]; $channel['nr'][$nr]=$rf[1]; $channel['chatter'][$nr]=$rf[2]; } Call the values: foreach(array_keys($channel['nr']) as $test) { print ' nr:'.$test.'<br>'; print 'value nr: '.$channel['nr'][$test].'<br>'; print ' chatter: '.$channel['chatter'][$test].'<br>'; } This is useful, if you have to look later for an element inside the array: if(in_array($new_value,$channel['nr'])) print 'do something.'; Hope this helps someone. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+59693 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59693&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59693&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59693&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59693&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59693&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59693&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59693&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+59693&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
