Trouble with array

[slipvayne]

I've never used array's because I've always found a way to do something without them. I have finally taught myself how array's work, but I cannot seem to add a key and value to an array without my code creating another array inside that one. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but this is what I'm getting.

 

From what I understand, print_r is suppose to print out an array. This is what my print_r displays:

 

Array ( [knife] => 2000 ) Array ( [baseballbat] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 ) Array ( [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 ) Array ( [deserteagle] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 ) Array ( [ingram] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 ) Array ( [deserteagle] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 ) Array ( [colt] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [baseballbat] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [deserteagle] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [colt] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [baseballbat] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [deserteagle] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [colt] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [baseballbat] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [deserteagle] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [ump40] => 2000 [pepperspray] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [baseballbat] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [flashbangs] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [pepperspray] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [pepperspray] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [flashbangs] => 2000 [teargas] => 1800 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [pepperspray] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [flashbangs] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [tasergun] => 1800 [teargas] => 1800 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [pepperspray] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [flashbangs] => 2000 [teargas] => 1800 [tasergun] => 1800 [combathelmet] => 1600 [grenades] => 958 ) Array ( [ingram] => 2000 [pepperspray] => 2000 [flashbangs] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [tasergun] => 1800 [teargas] => 1800 [combathelmet] => 1600 [grenades] => 958 [kevlarvest] => 271 ) Array ( [ump40] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [pepperspray] => 2000 [flashbangs] => 2000 [teargas] => 1800 [tasergun] => 1800 [combathelmet] => 1600 [grenades] => 958 [kevlarvest] => 271 ) Array ( [baseballbat] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [flashbangs] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [pepperspray] => 2000 [deserteagle] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [tasergun] => 1800 [teargas] => 1800 [combathelmet] => 1600 [grenades] => 958 [kevlarvest] => 271 ) Array ( [deserteagle] => 2000 [baseballbat] => 2000 [knife] => 2000 [pepperspray] => 2000 [ingram] => 2000 [colt] => 2000 [ump40] => 2000 [flashbangs] => 2000 [teargas] => 1800 [tasergun] => 1800 [combathelmet] => 1600 [grenades] => 958 [kevlarvest] => 271 )

 

Notice how the first array has one key/value, the second has the same value as the first plus an additional value. The third array has the same values as the second array plus an additional value. I'm confused as to whether my array is correct, and that print_t is just showing me how the array has changed everytime the while loop went through, or there is an error in my code and my array is not correct. I want to get this cleared before I continue. Here is my code so far:

 

<?

$user = $_GET['user'];
$attacks = $_GET['attacks'];


$quser = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM user WHERE username = '$user'");
$nuser = mysql_num_rows($quser); 

if ($nuser == 1) {

$ruser = mysql_fetch_array($quser);

$totalpower = $ruser[power] + $ruser[defense];
$sabpower = round ($totalpower * $sabdmg);

$ramount = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT * FROM user_items WHERE username = '$user'"));

$wa = array();

	$qweps = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM weaponstore ORDER BY type ASC, price ASC");
	while ($rweps = mysql_fetch_array($qweps)) {

		$wepname = $rweps[colname];
		$wepamount = $ramount[$wepname];

		if ($wepamount >= 1) { $wa[$wepname] = $wepamount; }

		arsort($wa);
		print_r($wa);



	}

}


?>

 

Basically the code should add the $wepname as the key and $wepamount as the value to an array $wa only if $wepamount is >= 1, but the way my print_r is showing it I'm just confused as to why I'm getting a bunch of arrays and not just one.

you  have your print_r inside the while loop, so its showing you how your array is building as the while loop executes. Try taking print_r out of the while loop, and placing it after, and see if it prints what you expect

Wow I feel so stupid that I didn't notice that. :| Thanks.
