note 103342 added to language.types.array

I was in need to get value of key which resides at any level in an multidimensional array. Unfortunately there is no such array function. So I write my own as below... function array_get_key_val($key, $heystack) { if (is_array($heystack)) { foreach ($heystack as $k => $v) { if ($k == $key) { return $v; } elseif (is_array($v)) { return array_get_key_val($key, $v); } } } return FALSE; } Hope this will help to few. ---- Server IP: 202.65.157.132 Probable Submitter: 203.191.35.22 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/103342 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103342/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103342/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103342/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103342/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103342/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103342/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/103342 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/103342 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
