Multi-Dimensional array holding a string and a boolean value

[Mythic Fr0st]

Ok, I have a uhh 'weaponlist' now for my game, when you equip it, it runs weaponlist and checks if each array in weaponlist is equal to the selected item from the drop down box...

it works, but I also want to add it so it checks if the second dimension array, is true or false (1,0)

I think I can do that, but I need to know how to create an array like it...

$weaponlist=array('Iron Dagger','Iron Sword','Steel Sword','Titan Sword');

how would I make a double array from that
i've tried $weaponlist=array('Iron Dagger','Iron Sword','Steel Sword','Titan Sword'),(1,0,0,0); etc.. but I cant get it

if not possible a string array and then numerical value, perhaps just another string?

Actually, I think you want to use an associative array. I'm assuming that you want each item in the array to have the value of true or false.

First create the array with all values equal to false:
[code]<?php
$weaponlist = array('Iron Dagger'=>false, 'Iron Sword'=>false, 'Steel Sword'=>false, 'Titan Sword' => false);
?>[/code]
The when you want to set one of the entries to "true", you would do:
[code]<?php
$weaponlist['Iron Dagger'] = true;
?>[/code]

Thanks, that worked, however I cant seem to get the thing to actually work (the string works)

this is what im trying to do

[code=php:0]if (isset($_POST['eq1']))
    {
    if ($_POST['eq1']=='eq2')
          {
          if (isset($_POST['inv']))
              {
              $x=$_POST['inv'];
              foreach ($weaponlist as $is => $q)
                  {
                  if ($q == $inv[$x])
                        {
                        if ($weaponlist[$x]==true)
                            {
                            $weaponlist[$x]=false;
                            $wdmg=$weapondmg[$x];
                            $weapon=$q;
                            echo 'set';
                            }
                            else
                                  {
                                  $weaponlist[$x]=true;
                                  $wdmg=0;
                                  $weapon='Fists';
                                  echo 'unset <br />';
                                  }
                      }
                  }
            }
        }
    }[/code]

Im not sure how to do this

could I do

if $weaponlist[$x][$x] or use 2? i tried it but it didnt work

(I cant use $weapon['iron dagger'] == true, because I dont know what it is yet, so I use $x and so on

btw is it possible to do even 4 lots?

so 'Name of Item' 'item damage' 'item price' 'true'

it seems whenever I echo $weapon[$x] it returns 0 or 1

erm is that more readable to you??? (I dont know how to indent properly:P)

[trq]

Sorry, but have you ever heard of indentation? I can't read your code AT ALL.

[Mythic Fr0st]

mm, ok gime a sec (I use text doc, so I dont really indent:P) i'll indent it

[trq]

Hehe... now none of your indentation lines up. Nice try though.

[Mythic Fr0st]

Erm, how are they suppost to be?? LOL like ALL of it but the first and last to be 4 indents or something?

[artacus]

Ok I'm not even going to try to make sense of your code

in your foreach

foreach ($weaponlist as $is => $q){
$is //Iron Dagger
$q //true
