SancLunatic Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I have a problem. I have this array. Example... [0] hi.jpg [1] bye.gif [2] blah.png [3] 0000.jpg If I enter a value to a field like "bye.gif". Or let's say I put this on the address bar... http://mysite.com/somepage.php?view=bye.gif I want to get the array index and put that into a variable. Like somehow I want to do a "$_GET['view']" maybe and get the array value and put it into a variable. Like... $imageVar = "index of $_GET['view']" So when run it's like... $imageVar = 1 Hope this doesnt sound like jibberish. i'm kind of a noob.

Love2c0de Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Good evening lunatic, You can use the array_search() function. //this returns the index or false on failure $index = array_search($_GET['view'],$array_name); Hope this helps, Kind regards, L2c.
