read an elemnet from an array

[mmartinez]

If I had an array w 8 items in it, and I wanted to read the value in item 6....how would I do that?

In the old Basic days...when you referenced an array element by: $ArrayName(index)

is there an equivalent for PHP?

its tricky... you have to go to php.net and type "array" in the search box...

<?

$arr = array('one', 'two', 'three', 'four', 'five', 'six', 'seven', 'eight');

echo $arr[5];

?>

displays:

six

Thanks...I actually tried that before posting...but I think there was a syntax error.

Tried again after your post, and it worked fine.

Thanks so much for the help!
