array/loop question

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 23.2004

Hi People.
I’m having some trouble with a script I made. I’m quite new to arrays within PHP, so I wonder if someone could tell me what’s wrong with my script.

The code at the bottom, displays:

[code]ArrayArrayArrayArrayArrayArray[/code]

What i THINK it should be displaying, is:

[code]123456[/code]

Eventually, I’ll replace the ‘echo’ with a ping script, and the 1,2,3 with URLs. (just so you know what I’m aiming to do eventually).

[code=php]<?php

$variable[] = array (“1”, “2”, “3”, “4”, “5”, “6”);

for (

$counter=1;
$counter<6;
$counter++)

{

echo $variable;

}

?>
[/code]

If anyone can tell me where the code is wrong, that would be very helpful, thanks!
?

@fredmvFeb 23.2004 — It's because you're telling it to print [font=courier]$variable[/font] &#8212; the literal array object &#8212; not one of the pieces of data from one of the elements in the array. In order to walk through the array and get the results you're looking for, you must change this line:echo $variable; To this:echo $variable[color=blue][$counter][/color];This would work because we're now accessing the current array element's data based on the value of the counter for the loop.

i've spent an ungodly amount of time trying to get that to work...

$variable[] also had to be changed to $variable

[B]$variable[] also had to be changed to $variable[/B][/QUOTE]Yeah; I wasn't so sure about that &#8212; it's valid in Java (yes &#8212; Java &#8212; not Java[i]Script[/i]) so I was questioning it but then again, I don't code PHP so I'm not really all that great with it. It's just arrays, loops, variables and the like apply to generally all programming languages hence why I was able to help you out quite easily.

@hammerslaneauthorFeb 23.2004 — What I'm about to ask here, is technically a new thread, but I feel greedy starting 2 threads in 1 day :p

The code below, is a function that's being used in my array/while loop above (that fredmv helped me with).

It's a function that should open a URL, and if the URL ($link) connects, it assigns 'connected' text to $mesage, and if it doesn't connect, it assigns some 'fail' text to $message.

The error I'm getting though when using this chkuri function, is:Fatal error: Cannot redeclare chkuri() (previously declared in \Maze01SharedWebintranetpingpingfo.php:46) in \Maze01SharedWebintranetpingpingfo.php on line 46
Line 46 is the first line of PHP below...
[code=php]<?

function chkuri($link){
$churl = @fopen("http://".$link,'r');
if (!$churl) {
$message="http://$link is down";
}else{
$message="Connected to http://$link";
}
return $message;
}
?>
[/code]I'm not sure why it's returning the odd error message, I've never seen it before. Maybe someone can give me an alteration to the code...

Thanks people
