[SOLVED] array_combine work around

[ninedoors]

Ok, I found this work around for array_combine on php.net.  I need this because my server is only running php 4.  So array_combine will not work as it is undefined. So here it is:

 

function array_combine($arr1, $arr2)
{
  $buffer = array();
  foreach($arr1 as $key1 => $arr_1)
  {
    foreach($arr2 as $key2 => $arr_2)
      $buffer[$arr_1] = $arr_2;
  }
  return $buffer;
}

 

Now when I try to call this function I get an assoc. array but the values are incorrect.  Here is thye example I used:

 

$array_homepens = array(3, 5, 8, 24);
$array_homepenmins = array(2, 2, 5, 4);

$len = count($array_homepenalties);

$assoc_array_hpen = array_combine($array_homepens, $array_homepenmins);  								

print_r($assoc_array_hpen);

 

And $assoc_array_hpen = Array ( [3] => 4 [5] => 4 [8] => 4 [24] => 4 ), which is clearly incorrect as it should be:

 

Array ( [3] => 2 [5] => 2 [8] => 5 [24] => 4 )

 

Can anyone help me figure this out?  Thanks Nick

    function array_combine ($keys, $data)
    {
        $res = array();
        foreach ($keys as $i=>$k) {
            $res[$k] = $data[$i];
        }
        return $res;
    }
