Hello, I have a multi-dim array, $a which produces the following var_export($a):

array (
  'some_ID' => 5,
  'Create_Date' => '2004-02-20 15:18:13',
  'some_Name' => 'foo',
  'some_Description' => 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.',
  'Priority' => 1,
  'some_URL' => 'http://www.fooname.com',
  'Featured' => 1,
  'Admin_ID' => 30,
  'Status' => 'A',
  'Last_Update' => '2004-08-31 11:29:27',
)

array (
  'some_ID' => 16,
  'Create_Date' => '2000-06-14 10:10:36',
  'some_Name' => 'bar',
  'some_Description' => 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.',
  'Priority' => 2,
  'some_URL' => 'http://www.bardomain.com',
  'Featured' => 0,
  'Admin_ID' => NULL,
  'Status' => 'A',
  'Last_Update' => '2003-08-18 15:43:22',
)

array (
  'some_ID' => 19,
  'Create_Date' => '2006-06-19 11:15:59',
  'some_Name' => '555',
  'some_Description' => '555',
  'Priority' => 555,
  'some_URL' => '555',
  'Featured' => 0,
  'Admin_ID' => NULL,
  'Status' => 'A',
  'Last_Update' => '2006-10-17 10:28:32',
)

array (
  'some_ID' => 20,
  'Create_Date' => '2006-06-20 11:36:01',
  'some_Name' => 'anotherfoo',
  'some_Description' => 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.',
  'Priority' => 7,
  'some_URL' => 'http://www.anotherfoo.com/',
  'Featured' => 0,
  'Admin_ID' => NULL,
  'Status' => 'A',
  'Last_Update' => '2005-02-18 15:43:22',
)

My question is:  How do I iterate through and only extract the value of 'some_ID' and place that into a table?

Try something like this for your table...

[code]
<?php
// Open the table
echo "<table width=\"300\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"3\" border=\"1\">";

// Loop through each instance in the array
foreach ($a as $key => $value){
  echo "<tr><td width=\"300\" align=\"center\">{$a[$key]['some_ID']}</td></tr>\n"; // Echo the table rows
}

// Close off the table
echo "</table>\n";
?>
[/code]
