Note Submitter: cvlad at wallaquia ---- When you are doing a if ($array) to find whether an array is empty or not you´ll returning a true in the case of a multidimensional array filled with empty arrays. The reason it occurs is that, well, actually the array is not empty, it is filled with empty arrays! :-) But eventually I found useful to know if the array is all-along empty, so I've written this simple function (I don´t know if there is some other form of doing this). Hope you find useful. function arrayVazio($array) { if (is_array($array)) { if ($array) { $retorno = true; foreach ($array as $a) { $retorno &=arrayVazio($a); } return $retorno; } else { return true; } } else { return false; } }
