Use a multi-dimensional array... try this as a kind of 'proof of concept' <?php
$array["tu4r"][]=0 $array["tu4r"][]=10 $array["tu4r"][]=100 $array["tu4r"][]=1000 $array["ph10"][]=0; $array["ph10"][]=1; $array["ph10"][]=2; $array["ph10"][]=126; echo '<pre>'; foreach ( $array["ph10"] as $value ) { echo ' PH10: '.$value.chr(10); } echo '</pre>'; echo '<pre>'; foreach ( $array["tu4r"] as $value ) { echo ' TU4R: '.$value.chr(10); } echo '</pre>'; ?> cheers -----Original Message----- From: Scott Fletcher [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 10:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Re: Any ideas on combining arrays???? Well, I don't thinik this will work. Because I will recieve an unknown number of data. The number of PH10 I would get would be either 1 or 2 or 126, etc. There is no way to determine the number, so I already create an counter to tell me how many of them. So, that leave me with an need to create an array to unlimited number of PH10 without overwritting the current PH10. Here's my demo. TU4R = "TU4R is 0" PH10 = "PH10 is 0" PH10 = "PH10 is 1" PH10 = "PH10 is 2" Can anyone write a multidimentional array demostration to handle this demo? Thanks a Million!
