php associative array parse issue

[guest2478]

Hello everybody,

I have a quick php array issue:

I want parse the following array:

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

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

I think that you mean by "parse" something different from what I mean. What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

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.

Something like this? (I know, it's ugly.)

<?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";
}
