Thanks for the insight Ben,
Straight forward when I looked at your code examples and this answers a
couple of other things to.
Thanks once again for your clear help

BR Try putting curly braces around your variables. Like this:
BR
BR {$val[name][$i]}
Please reply to the list so that others can help you out, as well--and
so others can learn from your questions, if they happen to have the same
ones.
All right, I've taken a closer look at the code, and here's what's going
wrong:
When you do foreach($vocals as $val), it only sees 3 rows in $vocals,
one for name, one for skill, and one for fee. You can see this when you
do print_r($vocals). Thus, it can't find $val[name][$i] or any of the
other variables because they don't exist in $val. You could change it
to $val[$i], but then you're table would print out like this:
Jonny FlashJonny FlashJonny Flash
77 77 77
39000 39000 39000
So, now you see a little bit of where the problem is. You need to
rework your foreach to get things right. There are several ways you can
do this. One is to store your array differently, like this:
$vocals = array(
array('name' = 'Jonny Flash', 'skill' = 87, 'fee' = 22000),
array('name' = 'Bill Banger', 'skill' = 77, 'fee' = 18500),
array('name' = 'Sarah Jane', 'skill' = 93, 'fee' = 39000) );
Then, you would print it out like this:
$rows = table;
foreach($vocals as $val){
$rows .=
tr
td{$val[name]}/tdtd{$val[skill]}/tdtd{$val[fee]}/td
/tr
;
}
$rows .= /table;
echo $rows;
Another way, using the same array you had, would be to print it out like
this:
$rows = table;
for ($i = 0; $i count($vocals['name']); $i++) {
$rows .=
tr
td{$vocals[name][$i]}/tdtd{$vocals[skill][$i]}/tdtd{$vocals[fee][$
i]}/td
/tr
;
}
$rows .= /table;
echo $rows;
However, I feel that it is more logical and easier to use to store the
array in the way I suggested above.
