[SOLVED] need help with an array

[work_it_work]

I have an array like this:

 

$array = array ("3279" => array ("AMC", 0), 
"3373" => array ("CL", 0), 
"3374" => array ("Integra", 0), 
"3375" => array ("Legend", 0), 
"3367" => array ("MDX", 0), );  ?>

 

What i want is to search in the array for the number and pull out the name

EG: search number 3373 and pull out CL (nothing else)

 

Help me please!!!

Thanks in advance!

i'm not sure, but try this:

<?php

$array = array ("3279" => array ("AMC", 0),
"3373" => array ("CL", 0),
"3374" => array ("Integra", 0),
"3375" => array ("Legend", 0),
"3367" => array ("MDX", 0), ); 

if ( in_array("3373" , $array) )
{
   echo $array['3373'][0];
}

?>

I don't think you can do that, can you? Because 3373 is the key, doesn't in_array just check the value? Wouldn't use you if(isset($array['3373'])) instead?

yea, you right... my bad... sorry...

but i can use array_key_exists instead in_array

Well using the help provided here, i manage solve this problem

Here it is the complete script:

 

<?php

$trigger = 3373;

$array = array ("3279" => array ("AMC", 0),
"3373" => array ("CL", 0),
"3374" => array ("Integra", 0),
"3375" => array ("Legend", 0),
"3367" => array ("MDX", 0), );  ?>

if ( array_key_exists($trigger , $array) )
{
   echo $array[$trigger][0];
}

?>
