note 55994 added to function.implode

I liked memandeemail's (27-Apr-2005) neat code for imploding an associative array. I have done a mod so that, by default, it returns a url query string. <?php function implode_with_key($assoc, $inglue = '=', $outglue = '&') { $return = null; foreach ($assoc as $tk => $tv) $return .= $outglue.$tk.$inglue.$tv; return substr($return,1); } ?> Example: <?php $assoc_array = array("a" => "foo", "b" => "bar", "c" => "foobar"); echo (implode_with_key($assoc_array); ?> ouput: a=foo&b=bar&c=foobar usage: After altering the $HTTP_GET_VARS values, I pass $HTTP_GET_VARS to the function to easily build variation urls for links and header redirects. note: This function doesn't encode the url string or check for empty variables. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.implode.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55994 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55994&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55994&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55994&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55994&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55994&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55994&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55994&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
