Thanks.
$newArray = array('FAF1', 'ODM1', /* bla bla bla */);
$inputArray = array_combine($newArray, $inputArray);
I guess reading through this page was too much trouble for you:

Sorry I was such a bother.
no bother, if everyone read the manual and found their answers there who would
I vent my speel at?
I'll assume that array_combine() does the trick for you.

Re: [PHP] Array numeric key - alpha key replacement
Jochem,
Yes, that did the trick quite nicely.
As I said, I overlooked it... a function called array_combine did
not cause me to read the drill-down, because I figured it was for a
union of two arrays ( it is, kind of... ) and I wanted to replace key
values, not combine arrays : array_combine( (1,2,3,4), (5,6,7,8)) =
array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) which is what the name of the function implies
is does, and which, for those of us who have read that portion of the
manual knows, is accomplished by array_merge.
Thanks for the help.

granted the names are less than perfect, you do illustrate very well that
assumptions (of any kind) pretty much suck (at least when it comes to this
kind of work) ... I assume you understand what I mean ;-)
I do recommend a thorough read of all the major sections of the docs
(those covering core functionality more than anything). garanteed you'll
come accross stuff that you'll use 3 months down the line which you would
otherwise have to search deity knows how long for
... at least that's my experience.
Thanks for the help.
please come back soon. my spleen needs the exercise. ;-)

What about:
$inputArray = array();
$inputArray['FAF1'] = array();
$inputArray['ODM1'] = array();
print_r($inputArray);
