How to assign dyniamic names for strings

[Anon]

I'm asking whether it is possible to assign names for strings in a for loop etc.?

For example, when I'm fetching data from database and I get an array like this:

Array
(
[1] => Array ( [1] => header [2] => Welcome )
[2] => Array ( [1] => content [2] => This is my page )
)

Is there any way I could loop through this array and fetch the text 'Welcome' to a string called $header (and text 'This is my page' to a string called $content).

Has anybody figured out something like this?

If you know how to use mysql_num_fields, mysql_now_rows and mysql_fetch_field, you should be able to make two nested loops to run through all fields for every row and thereby build an array just like the one you want.

Assuming the top array is called $array

foreach($array as entry)
{ ${$entry[1]}=$entry[2];
}

Beautiful!
