Quick Question:

I have the following array (multidimensional): 

    Array ( 
        [preorder] => 0 
        [data] => Array ( 
             [0] => 03:00:00 
             [1] => 03:15:00 
             [2] => 03:30:00 
             [3] => 03:45:00 
             [4] => 04:00:00 
             [5] => 04:15:00 
             [6] => 04:30:00 
             [7] => 04:45:00 
             [8] => 05:00:00 
             ) 
      )

How, if possible do I use a foreach to get the options from the [data] subarray. So forexample if I were to write in PHP:

foreach($arrayname as $key=>$data) {
    echo $data[$i];
    $i++;
}

But this doesn't seem to work. I know how to do this if each item in the array is set as say 'time_slot' or something, but I'm not entirely sure how this could work?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

As $arrayname['data'] is an array you can apply foreach function to it:

foreach($arrayname['data'] as $key=>$data) {
    echo "Key = " . $key ." and value = " . $data . "<br>\n";
}

Right on, before you were iterating through the containing array when you really wanted was to be iterating through the sub-array. –  Drew Galbraith Feb 18 '12 at 5:24
    
Thanks so much. I can't believe I couldn't work that out. Working through til 5:30am clearly isn't great for the mental abilities! haha –  Ryan Feb 18 '12 at 5:26
