[PHP] Getting Numerical Index of a Key
Is there an easy way to get the numerical index of a text key for an array? I don't see anything in the manual, but before I waste time writing code to find this info, I thought I would double check here. ---Matt

What makes you think it HAS a numerical index? Matt Honeycutt wrote: Is there an easy way to get the numerical index of a text key for an array?

Because I created it with mysql_fetch_array(). I know for a fact that both keys exist, and I can look at the output and tell what text key matches to what numerical key, but I don't want to hardcode it like that. The people that are taking over this code might change something and screw everything up. ---Matt -Original Message- From: Leif K-Brooks [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2003 12:35 AM To: Matt Honeycutt Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Getting Numerical Index of a Key What makes you think it HAS a numerical index?

No, there's no easy way to do this. Just out of curiousity, why do you want to do this anyway? Matt Honeycutt wrote: Because I created it with mysql_fetch_array().

RE: [PHP] Getting Numerical Index of a Key
Bad design, basically. This script is creating the array, then modifying a certain value in it using the text key. Later, it's referring to each value in the array by numerical index. Apparently, the text key and the numerical index do not refer to the same values in PHP, so the value it's referring to with the numerical index is the original value, not the one that was modified. I'm just going to spend the extra 5 minutes and rewrite that little chunk of code. ---Matt -Original Message- From: Leif K-Brooks [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2003 12:39 AM To: Matt Honeycutt Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Getting Numerical Index of a Key No, there's no easy way to do this.
