Array Syntax Question....

[drbigfresh]

I am currently building an array as I loop through some data. Currently I am doing this (I've shortened the array for posting purposes):

 

if(is_array($ListInformation)) {

 

array_push ($ListInformation,array(

listid => $result->fields['id']

)); //End Master Array

 

} else {

 

$ListInformation = array(

array(

listid => $result->fields['id']

),); //End Master Array

 

} // End We Have Info.

 

 

Is there a better way to do this so I don't have to add the array info in 2 separate steps? Since right now I am checking to see if it is an array, and if so I am using array_push. If it isn't an array I create it. But it is a little cumbersome....

can u list all the code for this action so i can see how you are doing it. Thanks

create $ListInformation as an array at the start so you always know it is one...and you don't need to use array_push....

 

This will give you the same result you currently have:

 

$ListInformation = array();

while ... {
$ListInformation[]['listid'] = $result->fields['id'];
}

Hmmmm... I can't seem to get it to work. This is my code that I have:

 

(it is inside a loop going though information from a database)

 

if(is_array($ListInformation)) {

 

array_push ($ListInformation,array(

listid => $result->fields['id'],

listname => $result->fields['listname'],

listdescription => $result->fields['description'],

thumbsup => $VoteUp,

thumbsdown => $VoteDown,

listcreated =>$result->fields['created'],

totalitems => $result->fields['totalitems'],

totalviews => $result->fields['totalviews'],

sadellink => $sadellink,

city => $result->fields['city'],

state => $result->fields['state'],

country => $result->fields['country'],

published => $result->fields['published'],

publisheddate => $result->fields['publisheddate'],

zip => $result->fields['zipcode'],

publicedit => $result->fields['publicedit'],

url => $result->fields['url'],

permalink =>  $PermaURL,

keywords =>  $result->fields['keywords'],

listrssfeed =>  $RSSFeed,

recordsreturned =>  $RecordsReturned,

creatorid =>  $result->fields['uid']

)); //End Master Array

 

 

} else {

 

 

$ListInformation = array(

array(

listid => $result->fields['id'],

listname => $result->fields['listname'],

listdescription => $result->fields['description'],

listcreated =>$result->fields['created'],

thumbsup => $VoteUp,

thumbsdown => $VoteDown,

totalitems => $result->fields['totalitems'],

totalviews => $result->fields['totalviews'],

sadellink => $sadellink,

city => $result->fields['city'],

state => $result->fields['state'],

country => $result->fields['country'],

published => $result->fields['published'],

publisheddate => $result->fields['publisheddate'],

zip => $result->fields['zipcode'],

publicedit => $result->fields['publicedit'],

url => $result->fields['url'],

permalink => $PermaURL,

keywords =>  $result->fields['keywords'],

listrssfeed =>  $RSSFeed,

recordsreturned =>  $RecordsReturned,

creatorid =>  $result->fields['uid']

),); //End Master Array

 

 

} // End Is Array
