Greetings, All -
I posted this earlier in a reply to my original post - but I didn't explain properly, therefore it got lost…
Presently, I have programmed a way to dynamically retrieve the latest stock prices and other related information from an legally sanctioned outside source on page entry. Initially, I'm calling the symbols from a arrayed MySQL table in a while statement, that MySQL table is constantly being updated by members and holds multiple tickers, so there isn't a fixed number of symbols…
An array exists inside the while statement that is looking for 15 fields of stock information based on the symbol provided to the outside source's url (which has it's own fields to tend to on their end, specified in the url string) for each of the symbols in the loop in an fopen situation.
It then retrieves the info for each symbol from the source and explodes it in to my second array (inside the while) to output the info I need - in HTML rows for each field of the symbol and of course repeats the process until no more symbols are found.
My question is how do I temporarily collect/store all the numbers for each symbol price looped back from a particular exploded array field, into another array so I can calculate them together with array_sum()
Thank you very much for your time and brain power. It is greatly appreciated!
