Array - Array

[JakesSA]

How would I go about registering an array array with Session variables. The problem is that I need to add items to the inner array, when the user adds a item to the cart.

eg.

//This obviously will over write the inner array when a item is added
$_SESSION['mycart'] = array(array("cloting" => "shirt", "size" = > "large", "print" => "snowboarding"));

or I probably need some sort of pointer that I need to seed with microtime maybe , not to sure

//This does not work aswell
(String) $var = sprintf("%04.0f",  time());

$_SESSION['mycart'] = array($_SESSION['item'][$var] = array("cloting" => "shirt", "size" = > "large", "print" => "snowboarding"));

Any Ideas?

Thanks

hi, u can add elements to the inner array usin:

array_push($_SESSION['mycart'], array("cloting" => "shirt", "size" = > "large", "print" => "snowboarding"));

this will treat the array like a stack, u can access the inner arrays by $_SESSION['mycart'][0] etc.

Thanks Natty_Dreadlock 🙂

All you have to do is first check if the array has values- if not, set the array as normal. Once you have got the array, you can push the the other elements onto the stack with array_push()

.... for those that might have the same problem as me down the line
