[PHP] Dynamic Multi Dimensional Arrays

2003-09-09 Thread Bobby Patel 
Hello Everyone,

I want to emulate session objects (as opposed to variables). I stumbled 
upon creating multi-dimensional arrays, so I can do this:
$name = 'Bob';
$year = '2003';

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user][$year] = 'registered';
which gives $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['Bob']['2003'] = 'registered';
but  I want to append an options array in this so what I want is:

$options = array (
  'income' = 1,
  'age' = 25
);
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user][$options] = 'registered';
which gives:
  $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['Bob'][ [income]=1, [age]=25 ] = 'registered';
but this doesn't work. Is there any way I can have objects saved in 
sessions?

(Where the $options array is created dynamically from passed POST data).

which gives:
  $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['Bob'][ [income]=1, [age]=25 ] = 'registered';
but this doesn't work. Is there any way I can have objects saved in

BP Bobby

 you would have to give $user another key value
$options = array('income'=1.'age'=25);
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user] = $options;
$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user]['status'] = 'registered';

also in these cases print_r($HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user]) can be your
friend.

There is, but I am not sure that is what you want. The reason you are 
getting the above result is because you are using $object (which is an 
array) as a key. Do you want an array element that holds the $options array?

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user]['options'] = $options;

You could then add elements to this array like this:

$HTTP_SESSION_VARS[$user]['options']['registered'] = 1;

Is that what you are trying to do?

I will try this out and see what happens.

Thank you Tom and Brad.
