ok so i set up a multidimensional array with the following code:

<?PHP
// departments.inc
//
// This file defines the switches. All the forms, and return displays are
// based on this table (multidimential array). The first index is the 
switch number,
// then each department has three proporties.
// 1, Can the website use this depatement?
// 2, Can this department be used in the admin pages?
// 3, Its name.

// The idea being when you want to introduce a new department you can turn
// it on for admin editing, make sure enough stories, vendors, 
events, were related,
// then open it to the public a few weeks later.

$departments = array ("s1" => array("On", "On", "The Seybold Report"),
"s2" => array("On", "On", "Publishing Systems"),
"s3" => array("On", "On", "Internet Publishing"),
"s4" => array("On", "On", "The Bulletin"),
"s5" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s6" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s7" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s8" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s9" => array("On", "On", "Broadband"),
"s10" => array("On", "On", "Business"),
"s11" => array("On", "On", "Color Management & Proofing"),
"s12" => array("On", "On", "Content & Asset Management"),
"s13" => array("On", "On", "CTP & On-press Imaging"),
"s14" => array("On", "On", "Digital Presses & Variable Data"),
"s15" => array("On", "On", "Digital Rights Management"),
"s16" => array("On", "On", "E-Books"),
"s17" => array("On", "On", "Personalization"),
"s18" => array("On", "On", "Print Workflow"),
"s19" => array("On", "On", "Standards"),
"s20" => array("On", "On", "Wireless"),
"s21" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s22" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s23" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s24" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s25" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s26" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s27" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s28" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s29" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s30" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s31" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s32" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s33" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s34" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s35" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s36" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s37" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s38" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s39" => array("Off", "Off", ""),
"s40" => array("Off", "Off", "")
);

?>

Now I am creating forms and tables and need to retrieve this info I'd 
like to say something like:

if switch s23 is availbe to the admin pages do this, else do that.

and

echo switch 34's name

Little help?

Mike
