Note Submitter: kanareykin at denison dot edu ---- Here's how to count non-empty elements in an array of any dimension. Hope it will be useful for somebody. <?php // recursively count all non-empty elements // in array of any dimension or mixed - i.e. // array('1' => 2, '2' => array('1' => 3, '2' => 4)) function count_all($arg) { // skip if argument is empty if ($arg) { // not an array, return 1 (base case) if(!is_array($arg)) return 1; // else call recursively for all elements $arg foreach($arg as $key => $val) $count += count_all($val); return $count; } } ?>
