Re: [PHP] Array question

[Hap-Hang Yu]

Try:

$fruit = array('a' => 'apple', 'b' => 'banana', 'c' => 'cranberry');
$search = 'apple';

foreach($fruit as $key => $val) {
 if ($val == $search) {
    echo "$search found: array key is $key, value is $val";
 }
}

I have a question on how to retrieve the value that corresponds to a
key in an array.

$fruit = array('a' => 'apple', 'b' => 'banana', 'c' => 'cranberry');

                $key = array_search($c, $fruit);
                if ( $key === FALSE )
                        $n = $c;
                else
                {
                        $n = $fruit[$key];  // how to get the value???
                }

the array_search works ok, but how do I get the value?

all I get back is 'a' or 'b', not 'apple' or 'banana'...

TIA

Gerry
