RE: [PHP] Assistance Please - Two-Dimension Arrays
Congratulations. You just described a multidimensional array :-) No he didn't ... a 2 dimensional array would have a set 2 dimensional structure. Each row would have to have the same number of columns. An array of arrays may be built in such a way as to be able to be presented as if it were a 2d array but IT ISN'T. It cannot be manipulated as if it were. $element[0][id] and $element[1][id] are NOT members of the same array.

fair point, ... but you can manipulate them as if they were. This isn't the case with arrays of arrays and multi-d arrays.

My main problem (i think) is that i dont know how to declare a 2 dimensional array prior to adding parts to it. Especially since the size of each internal array and the external array are all picked up from the files and read as strings - i'm not sure how to convert these to ints. I don't know how to test if the data is beign stored in the array because when i come out of the entry loop, the count() size of the array is 0. I'm very new at this so any help you can offer is greatly appreciated.
