getting the name of the key

[jdubwelch]

i have an array in the format:

[family] => day that they have a reservation

[code]eventsArray
(
    [Jason & Deena] => 29
    [Bob & Krista] => 9
    [Marolyn] => 15
    [J&D] => 17
    [bob & sally] => 22
    [Bob & Sally] => 25
)[/code]

I want to search throught the array and if there is an event on that day, print the key for it.  In this case the key is the name of the family.

[code]for ($i=1; $i<=31; $i++) {

if (in_array($i, $eventsArray)) {
echo "yes, there is an event on $i<br>";
}
}[/code]

how do i get the name of the key that has the value $i?

Please try using...  for each

You can find it using

[code=php:0]$families = array_keys($eventsArray, $i);[/code]

That will return an array of all the families who have a reservation on that day.

i tried array_flip too and that worked, but your way is better.
