oops. That's not correct. I wish it was though! ;)

>>Here's a question for the list:
>>
>>I have a two-dimensional array; essentially a list of arrays. Each element
>>(an array) can have any number of elements. As a small example:
>>
>>(
>> ( "foo" , "bar" , "red" , "apple" ),
>> ( "foo" , "bar" , "red" , "car"),
>> ( "foo" , "green" )
>>)
>>
>>I would like to traverse this array and place all of the data into another
>>multidimensional array. The following statements illustrate how I'd like to
>>do this from the example:
>>
>>$myarray["foo"]["bar"]["red"]["apple"] = $some_value1;
>>$myarray["foo"]["bar"]["red"]["car"] = $some_value2;
>>$myarray["foo"]["green"] = $some_value3;
>>
>>Is there any way to easily do this in PHP? I could "cheat" and use eval(),
>>but there is probably a better way. I have thought of using each() or
>>references, but nothing has come to mind so far.
>>
>>Any ideas? Should I just use eval() ?
