array walk

[Anon]

i want to use an array walk to list out several items, but i can only get two at a time.

what i would like is to have an array (or arrays) that contain three things, and then be able to use the arraywalk command to output all three so i can use them in the same line. example:

$fruits = array ("d"=>"lemon", "a"=>"orange", "b"=>"banana", "c"=>"apple");

function test_print ($item2, $key)
{
echo "$key. $item2<br>\n";
}

array_walk ($fruits, 'test_print');
reset ($fruits);

returns
d. lemon
a. orange
b. bananna
c. apple

what i would like is
d. lemon grape
a. orange cherry
b. bananna strawberry
c. apple tangerine

any suggestions?

you could use a 2d array:

$fruits = array (array('a', 'b', 'c'),
array('lemon', 'orange', 'banana'),
array('grape', 'cherry', 'strawberry'));

then walk through the first array, but the function test_print then walks through the array it's given (as $item2) using another function that prints it out...

hope this helps
