[Resolved] for each loop variables aaah

[redefineboy]

Hi,

Basically this is my code:

$band = array($memberinfo['member1user'], 
$memberinfo['member2user'], 
$memberinfo['member3user'], 
$memberinfo['member4user'], 
$memberinfo['member5user'], 
$memberinfo['member6user'], 
$memberinfo['member7user'], 
$memberinfo['member8user'], 
$memberinfo['member9user']);

 foreach ($band as $value) { 
 $value = $mb['id'];
 }

OK, and basically the $memberinfo['']; stuff is getting it from the db and that works....

So then when it goes to the foreach, I want it to get the id (from a different db) and change the band array to the new ID's.

On php.net, it said this would work :S ... Ignoring any DB stuff (that all works..)

Have you got any ideas?!

Thanks,

Max

i'm not certain, but i think when you do this:

foreach ($band as $value) {  

  $value = $mb['id']; 
}

then $value is just a temporary value. $band doesn't really give a hoot what you do with it.

you might want to try something like this

$new_band = Array();
foreach($band as $key=>$value) {
  $new_band[$key] = $mb['id'];
}

HOWEVER all that is going to do is make a copy of $band called $new_band which has the same size and keys as $band, but each and every element of $new_band is all set to the same value.

You're going to have to increment $mb['id'] some how to get different values. something like
$new_band[$key] = $mb[$key]

I'm not sure at all if this is going to help. I have NO IDEA what you are really trying to do.

Hi,

Thanks for that, but I just gave up last night and did it another way!

It was really messy because it worked before... But then one change to the database, made it not work, so I had to change that!

So Thanks!
