change array names

[piznac]

Ok I have this:

[code]$flds2 = array('pname','use','job','edate','sdate');[/code]

Gathered by a form

I need to change it to:
[code]$flds2 = array('event','userid','event_type','event_finish','received');[/code]

But keep all the values the same. Can anyone help me on how to do this?

I do not see any keys in your arrays. You just have a list of values stored in the fld2 array.

All you'll need to do is this:
$fld2[0] = 'event'

That will now make the fld2 array like this:
array('event','use','job','edate','sdate')

Ok Im a bit confused,.

These are coming off a form where thier is an unknown amount of them.

[code]<table width='856' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>
                    <tr>
                      <td width='48'><label>
                        <input name='storenum[]' type='text' id='storenum' size='8' />
                      </label></td>
                      <td width='145'><label>
                        <input name='address[]' type='text' id='address' />
                      </label></td>
                      <td width='149'><label>
                        <input name='city[]' type='text' id='city' />
                      </label></td>
                      <td width='34'><input name='state[]' type='text' id='state' size='5' /></td>
                      <td width='60'><label>
                        <input name='zip[]' type='text' id='zip' size='10' />
                      </label></td>
                      <td width='62'><input name='phone[]' type='text' id='phone' size='10' /></td>
                      <td width='60'><input name='fax[]' type='text' id='fax' size='10' /></td>
                      <td width='92'><input name='assignemp[]' type='text' id='assignemp' size='10' /></td>
                      <td width='92'><label>
                        <input name='sdate[]' type='text' id='sdate' onfocus='showCalendarControl(this);'/>
                      </label></td>
                      <td width='92'><label>
                        <input name='edate[]' type='text' id='edate' onfocus='showCalendarControl(this);'/>
                      </label>
                      <input name='pname[]' type='hidden' value='$fname' />
                      <input name='status[]' type='hidden' id='status' value='N' />
                      <input name='images[]' type='hidden' id='images' value='N' />
                      <input name='files[]' type='hidden' id='files' value='N' /></td>
  <input name='use[]' type='hidden' id='use' value='$user' />
  <input name='job[]' type='hidden' id='job' value'Project' />
                    </tr>[/code]

then I use this to put the data in the database
[code]$flds = array('storenum','address','city','state','zip','phone','fax', 'assignemp', 'pname', 'sdate', 'edate', 'status', 'images', 'files' );
for($i=0;$i<count($_POST['storenum']);$i++) {
    $qtmp = array();
    foreach($flds as $fld)
        if (trim(stripslashes($_POST[$fld][$i])) != '')
            $qtmp[] = $fld . " = '" . mysql_escape_string(trim(stripslashes($_POST[$fld][$i]))) . "'";
    $q = "insert into subjob set " . implode(', ',$qtmp);
    $rs = mysql_query($q) or die ('Problem with the query: ' . $q . '<br>' . mysql_error());[/code]

what I need to do is take about 5 of those and put them in an other table as well. Prehaps I am asking the wrong thing,.. not sure. But if I changed the name like that would it change the value?

try[code]<?php
$flds2 = array('pname','use','job','edate','sdate');
$flds2a = array('event','userid','event_type','event_finish','received');
$f = array_combine($flds2,$flds2a);
// your code
// ...
foreach ($f as $key => $value) {
if (trim(stripslashes($_POST[$key][$i])) != '')
    $qtmp[] = $value . " = '" . mysql_escape_string(trim(stripslashes($_POST[$key][$i]))) . "'";
    // etc.
}
?>[/code]

Hey thanks man,.. but this is a version 5 only function? Shame on me for telling you what version I used. It is now in my sig,.. is this function available in 4.4.4

OK
try[code]<?php
function my_arr_comb($a,$b){
foreach ($a as $key => $value) $out[$value] = $b[$key];
return $out;
}
$flds2 = array('pname','use','job','edate','sdate');
$flds2a = array('event','userid','event_type','event_finish','received');
$f = my_arr_comb($flds2,$flds2a);
// your code
// ...
foreach ($f as $key => $value) {
if (trim(stripslashes($_POST[$key][$i])) != '')
    echo $qtmp[] = $value . " = '" . mysql_escape_string(trim(stripslashes($_POST[$key][$i]))) . "'";
    // etc.
}
?>[/code]
