[SOLVED] echoing all instances in an array

[Bifter]

Hi, how would I echo all the different values after the top level ([products]) - Basicly I need to pull all the sub levels ([product-id], [product-name], [technology-type]...etc.) from each of the [products] - there are 2 in the example below but the acual array has about 20.

 

[products] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [product-id] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => counting
                            [value] => 1235
                        )

                    [product-name] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => text
                            [value] => Home 512k Classic
                        )

                    [technology-type] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => text
                            [value] => adsl
                        )

                    [capped] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => yesno
                            [value] => Y
                        )

                    [service-speed] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => counting
                            [value] => 524288
                        )

                    [contention] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => counting
                            [value] => 50
                        )

                    [care-availability] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => yesno
                            [value] => Y
                        )

                    [care-level] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => text
                            [value] => standard
                        )

                    [realms] => Array
                        (
                            [0] => Array
                                (
                                    [realm] => Array
                                        (
                                            [format] => text
                                            [value] => -flipsolutions@surfdsluk
                                        )

                                )

                        )

                )

            [1] => Array
                (
                    [product-id] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => counting
                            [value] => 1236
                        )

                    [product-name] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => text
                            [value] => Home 1mb Classic
                        )

                    [technology-type] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => text
                            [value] => adsl
                        )

                    [capped] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => yesno
                            [value] => Y
                        )

                    [service-speed] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => counting
                            [value] => 1048576
                        )

                    [contention] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => counting
                            [value] => 50
                        )

                    [care-availability] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => yesno
                            [value] => Y
                        )

                    [care-level] => Array
                        (
                            [format] => text
                            [value] => standard
                        )

                    [realms] => Array
                        (
                            [0] => Array
                                (
                                    [realm] => Array
                                        (
                                            [format] => text
                                            [value] => -flipsolutions@surfdsluk
                                        )

                                )

                        )

                )

 

I guess it would be something like this in a loop -but I cannot figure it out.

<?php
echo ['products']
?>

 

I hope I have explained myself - if not please ask.

 

Thanks for looking.

Example

function traversal ($arr) {
     foreach ($arr as $key => $val) {
          if (is_array($val)) traversal($val);
          else echo $key . ' = ' . $val;
     }
}
traversal($array['products']);

Thanks for the reply - this returns:

 

format = countingvalue = 1235format = textvalue = Home 512k Classicformat = textvalue = adslformat = yesnovalue = Yformat = countingvalue = 524288format = countingvalue = 50format = yesnovalue = Yformat = textvalue = standardformat = textvalue =

 

but I dont think this going to work anyway, the bigger picture is that I want to get each product to return into a form with a radio button before each row where the user can select which product they want to goahead with. Then when the submit button is pressed the product id is posted to the next script - but I cannot figure it out.

[Cosizzle]

give this a try

 

for ($r=0; $r<sizeOf($products); $r++) {
    for ($c=0; $c<sizeOf($products[$r]); $c++) {
        echo $products[$c][$r];
    }
    echo '<br>';
}

[Bifter]

I can figure how this would fit in Cosizzle. My array is stored in $L

[Cosizzle]

your array name is 'L'?

 

Look for 'L' in the script below and swap that out with the array name if 'L' isnt it.

 

for ($r=0; $r<sizeOf($L); $r++) {
    for ($c=0; $c<sizeOf($L[$r]); $c++) {
        echo $L[$c][$r];
    }
    echo '<br>';
}

 

This should output your list within a grid format.

You should take another look at Ken2K7's code.

 

Test this if you don't believe him (and me) that it does work:

<?php
function traversal ($arr)
{
	foreach ($arr as $key => $value)
	{
		if(is_array($value))
		{
			traversal($value);
		}
		else
		{
			echo $value.'<br />';
		}
	}
}
$array = array(
'this',
'does',
'work',
'honestly.'
);
traversal($array);
?>

If it doesn't, there's something horrifically wrong with your array.

the php  code they gave you works perfectly for you problem some simple modifications to add that radio button and everything should work just fine

[Bifter]

Exellent it does - dont know what I did before then!

 

How would you get the second level returned,

<?php $array = $L['products'] ['product-id']; ?>

doesn't work...

[thebadbad]

What about

 

<?php
$products = array();
foreach ($L['products'] as $array) {
$products[$array['product-id']['value']] = $array['product-name']['value'];
}
foreach ($products as $id => $name) {
echo '<input type="radio" name="product" value="' . $id . '" /><span>' . $name . '</span><br />';
}
?>

Mighty fine work all!! thanks!
