PHP Array Help

[AJLX]

Hey guys,

I have the following array (I have shortened it to make it more readable):

Array

    [0] => Array
        (
            [opportunity_item] => Array

    )

[1] => Array

                [name] => Robe Robin 600 LED Wash
                [transaction_type] => 1

I want to get rid of the rubbish out of this array, and create a new version which I can then work with to present in a neat format. To work through it I have been trying to use a for each loop like the one below:

//$new_obj is the array containing all the info
$items_array = array();

foreach ($new_obj as $new_key) {
	foreach ($new_key as $new_id) {

 echo  $item_name = $new_id['name'];	
}
}

This works, kind of except that it gives me double results, with half of them not working:

Robe Robin 600 LED Wash11.0
Notice: Undefined index: name in /home/linweb30/z/zeallive.com/user/htdocs/api/index.php on line 82

I'm guessing this is something to do with the double for each loops? I have tried to use this code instead

 
foreach ($new_obj as $new_key => $new_id) {

 echo  $item_name = $new_id['name'];	
}

But that can't find the array index. Could you help please?

Thanks

Andy

Well, some of the arrays your inner loop is looping over (such as [font=monospace]$new_obj[0]['meta'][/font]) don't have an element named [font=monospace]'name'[/font], but you're assuming every array that you loop over in that inner loop has one. Every time you try to do whatever it is you're trying to do (and I'm not understanding that) with an array that doesn't, you'll get a complaint telling you so.

Thanks for replying,

I managed to solve it with the following code

foreach ($new_obj as $new_id) 
{  

$item_path  = $new_id['opportunity_item']['path']; // THIS IS THE ITEM PATH
$item_name  = $new_id['opportunity_item']['name']; // THIS IS THE ITEM NAME

Thanks!
