Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Aug 09.2011

Hello everybody,

I have a quick php array issue:

I want parse the following array:

[CODE] Array ( [Heading1] => Someheading [0] => Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [par] => 3 [content] => hello world [id] => 1 ) ) )
[/CODE]

I have tried a foreach loop but only returns ‘heading1’, should there be a counter within this loop? ?

note: the array can have more than one heading.

thanks in advance

by parsing i mean looping and outping each of the array value.


oops i should have showed a example,

i want the array to be outputted in the following format:

[Heading1] Someheading

[par] 3

[content] hello world

[id] 1


Heading1 will be array which contain a array inside it storing the information about that heading, there can be more than one Heading1 arrays that why i need a loop.

@NogDogAug 09.2011 — Something like this? (I know, it's ugly.)
[code=php]
<?php
/*
Array (
[Heading1] => Someheading
[0] => Array (
[0] => stdClass Object (
[par] => 3
[content] => hello world
[id] => 1
)
)
)
*/

// create test data:
$obj = new stdClass();
$obj->par = 3;
$obj->content = 'hello world';
$obj->id = 1;
$data = array(
'Heading1' => 'Someheading',
0 => array(
0 => $obj
)
);

// extract data:
foreach($data as $key => $value) {
if(is_array($value)) {
foreach($value as $key2 => $val2) {
if(is_object($val2)) {
$vars = get_object_vars($val2);
foreach($vars as $key3 => $val3) {
echo "$key3: $val3<br />n";
}
}
}
}
else echo "$key: $value<br />n";
}
[/code]
