iterating through 2 arrays at the same t

[planetphp]

Hi,

I'm trying to get the info from two arrays at the saem time without having to write a while statement for both... please help...

<?
$purchase[] = $id;
$quan[] = $quantity;
while(list($index, $ref_id) = each($purchase)) and (list($index1, $ref_id1) = each($quan))
{
echo "<br>$index - $ref_id, $index1, $ref_id1";
}
}
?>

i can get it to work if i use two while statements but i wan to retrieve all the info at the saem time...

are the arrays both the same size every time?

[planetphp]

yes... and the id's will correspond.

well then try this:

<?
$purchase = array("hello","there","man");
$quan = array(1,55,66);
for ($i = 0; $i < count($quan); $i++)
{
echo "<br>$purchase[$i] -- $quan[$i]";
}

?>

[planetphp]

That done the trick.... thanks a million!
