[SOLVED] deleting array

[purencool]

hi

 

In the code below I have an array that has nine keys. Two of these keys are text and attached to them is another array. I can search the keys and find the keys that are using strings. I then explode them and print them out. I can get aspect to work just fine. But it is the last step I can get to work.

 

What I want to do is  replace $x with the array that it found is this possible?

                              reset($menuCreation);
                       while (list($key,$value) = each($menuCreation)) {
                               if(is_numeric($key)){
                               }else{
                                   if (is_array($value)){
                                      //insert it back into the array
                                      $x = implode($value);
                                      //array_push($menuCreation, $x );
                                      //unset($value);



                                      echo $x;
                                    }
                               }
                        }
                        //test function

                         print_r ($menuCreation);

Do you mean place $x, the implosion of $value into an array? then something such as this..

reset($menuCreation);
while (list($key,$value) = each($menuCreation)) {
if(!is_numeric($key)){  //! means not, no need for extra else.
    if (is_array($value)){
            //insert it back into the array
            $x = implode($value);
            $menuCreation[1][0] = $x; //second [] is array within array.
            echo $x;
            }
      }
}
//test function
print_r ($menuCreation);

You'd just need to modify which arrays you had([1][0] in my example). It can be set within a function like yours..

I want to completely remove $value and replace it with $x.

I want to completely remove $value and replace it with $x.

 

Like this then?

reset($menuCreation);
while (list($key,$value) = each($menuCreation)) {
if(!is_numeric($key)){  //! means not, no need for extra else.
    if (is_array($value)){
            //insert it back into the array
            $value = implode($value); //Yeah!
            echo $x;
            }
      }
}
//test function
print_r ($menuCreation);

I was think some thing like this.

    reset($menuArray);
    while (list($key,$value) = each($menuArray)) {
        if(!is_numeric($key)) {  //! means not, no need for extra else.
            if (is_array($value)) {
                    //insert it back into the array
                $x = implode($value);
                array_pop($value);
                $menuArray[$key]= $x; //second [] is array within array.
                
            }
        }
    }

 

where the array would be removed and a $x would be replaced

oni-kun  thanks for your help I tried your idea but it would not work but if you point it back to the key it works great. But it was your idea I just refined it =).

The code below fixes the problem.

function ExplodeArrays($menuArray){
    reset($menuArray);
    while (list($key,$value) = each($menuArray)) {
        if(!is_numeric($key)) {  //! means not, no need for extra else.
            if (is_array($value)) {
                $menuArray[$key]= implode($value);
                
            }
        }
    }
  $returnValue = implode($menuArray);
  return $returnValue;
}

}

 

I was gonna write something like that, I started to understand what you meant. Glad I could help!
