Well, two possibilities off the top of my head:
foreach($cdata as $key=>$value)
{
$n = 0;
foreach ($value as $inner_key=>$inner_value)
{
if ($n++)
{
// do stuff with $inner_key and $inner_value
}
}
}
Or:
foreach($cdata as $key=>$value)
{
$date_element = array_shift($value);
// $date_element now contains original first element of $value
// $value now contains remaining elements
// do whatever you want with them here
}
Cheers!
