[RESOLVED] Finding value in next row of array

[AsianGuyJTran]

Hi everyone.

How do I go about getting the next row of data in a foreach?

$data = array();
$data[] = array("type" => 0);
$data[] = array("type" => 1);
$data[] = array("type" => 2);
$data[] = array("type" => 1);

Let's say the current array says that type == 0.
How do I get the next row?
Would next() be a possibility?

How are you iterating through the array in the first place?

Should have thrown that in as well:

<?php 
foreach ($data as $stuff) {
echo $stuff['type'];
}
?>

There isn't really anything built into PHP which will enable you to do this. However, you could run two loops, the first to capture and store the keys of the array, and the second as you wish.

$keys = Array();
foreach($data as $key => $value)
{
    $keys[] = $key;
}
$count = 0;
foreach($data as $key => $value)
{
    // do what you want with the current value
    // the next value in the array is $data[$keys[$count]]
    $count ++;
}

Is this what you had in mind?

I see what the two loops are trying to accomplish.

I just came up with an idea of putting a dummy value in.
Thanks for the suggestion.
