[SOLVED] php array question

[Jalz]

Hello,

 

I'm trying to get the contents of d_company into an array called cust_name. The code seems to be producing an error on line beginning with cust_name.

 

The error is Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FOREACH, expecting ')'

 

Any what the error could be as I've closed brackets correctly i think?

 

<?php 

$cust_name = array(foreach($CustomerList_result->getRecords() as $CustomerList_row)){
echo $CustomerList_row->getField('d_company');
  } ?>

<?php 

foreach($CustomerList_result->getRecords() as $CustomerList_row){
  $cust_name[] = $CustomerList_row->getField('d_company');
} 
?>

EDIT CV got there first

 

Umm. That is completely the wrong syntax. This is the correct syntax

 

$cust_name = array();

foreach($CustomerList_result->getRecords() as $CustomerList_row)
{
    $cust_name[] = $CustomerList_row->getField('d_company');
}

Thanks Guys once again,

 

Do I need the following line as you have it wildteen88, as it does seem to work without it?

 

$cust_name = array();

that line initializes/declares the array, before using it.  PHP does not technically need it to work, however, depending on your error message settings, it may output a notice when using an array before initializing it.  Apparently your setup is not, uh, setup to show notices, otherwise you would have uh, noticed it.  So in other words, it's not necessary, but it's generally good practice.
