array problems

Can anyone help me, I'm having a right time this evening getting any code to work!

I've got an array:

$total = array($category, $make, $price, $quantity, $shipping, $exprice, $vat, $totalprice);

If I print the array I get:

Array ( [0] => JEWELLERY BOXES [1] => ID-20 Wooden Jewellery Box W/Mask Inlaid Shell Fin [2] => 25.00 [3] => 1 [4] => 5.00 [5] => 30 [6] => 5.25 [7] => 35.25 )

But when I try and print category, there is no value for it. I am reading my array like this:

for ($i = 0; $i < $total[$i]; $i++) //Decode Array passed from Email Total
	$category = $total['0'];
	$make = $total['1'];
	$price = $total['2'];
	$quantity = $total['3'];
	$shipping = $total['4'];
	$exprice = $total['5'];
	$vat = $total['6'];
	$totalprice = $total['7'];

The loop seems useless unless there's more than one array, but it still doesn't make much sense.

According to your array, your loop is doing

for (
$i = 0;
$i < "JEWELLERY BOXES";
$i++
)

No there is only one array.

How would you suggest I go about this then?

Remove the whole "for" loop. You don't need it. Simply saying

$category = $total[0];
$make = $total[1];
$price = $total[2];
$quantity = $total[3];
$shipping = $total[4];
$exprice = $total[5];
$vat = $total[6];
$totalprice = $total[7];

should work...

Thanks for that, now you've pointed it out I don't know why I was trying to do that at all.

You never know, I might know something about PHP one of these days!!
