[Resolved] How do I call an array in an array

bike5

I need to call a value out of an array and put in another array like:

call_user_func($list[$o].'Info',substr($col_b['$col_name[$o]'],1,4));

$col_b calls the table name;
$col_name is the table name.
$o is the counter in the for loop.

$col_b['$col_name['$o']'] should retreive the value out of the database which is sent to the function.

This doesn't give me the output I requested. When I hard code the $col_name part, it works. But when I use the other arrays value, it doesn't. I checked the array to make sure the value was there and it is, it just wont transfer into the other array. Is there a way to do this? If this doesn't make sense let me know and Ill try to explain better of post the code in more detail.

Thanks for your time.

I don't know how because I tried this (I thought) already, but now it works.

call_user_func($list[$o].'Info',substr($col_b[$col_name[$o]],1,4));

I must of thought I had tried it but had the code tweeked just a little.. Took me 40mins to figure this out, glad I did thou.. Sorry about post.

No worries; having the problem and solution here might help someone else in the same situation in future.

Incidentally, developing with error reporting set to E_ALL would probably have revealed the error, unless you had a line somewhere that gave $col_b['$col_name[$o]'] a value.
