PHP Multidimensional Arrays

[Craig Hopson]

hi guys i have a simple one ui cant solve i want an array to be like this

Array (

[0] => Array (

[id] => 2

[lat] => 40.8824996948

[long] => -74.381942749

)

[1] => Array (

[id] => 6

[lat] => 40.8824996948

[long] => -74.381942749

)

[2] => Array (

[id] => 4

[lat] => 51.5001525879

[long] => -0.126236006618 )

)

)

This is the code i'm using which gives me multipuls of arrays (as it's looping)

include('modules/fab/ip2location.class.php');
  $ip = new ip2location;
  $ip->open('modules/fab/databases/IP-COUNTRY-REGION-CITY-LATITUDE-LONGITUDE-SAMPLE.BIN');
  $uid = $client['id'];
  $result = sql_query("SELECT * FROM `jcow_accounts` where ipaddress != '' order by lastlogin desc ");
  $i = 0;
  while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {

   $record  = $ip->getAll($row['ipaddress']);
   $id  = $row['id'];
   $lat  = $record->latitude;
    $long  = $record->longitude;

   $fab[] = array(
	   'id'=>$id,
	   'lat'=>$lat,
	   'long'=>$long,
	 );
  }
[/CODE]

Thanks

What's the current output? You also should initialize $fab = array().

forgive me for not formatting it but this is wat i get

Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 2 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) ) Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 2 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 6 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) ) Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 2 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 6 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) [2] => Array ( [id] => 4 [lat] => 51.5001525879 [long] => -0.126236006618 ) ) Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 2 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 6 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) [2] => Array ( [id] => 4 [lat] => 51.5001525879 [long] => -0.126236006618 ) [3] => Array ( [id] => 5 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) ) Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 2 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 6 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) [2] => Array ( [id] => 4 [lat] => 51.5001525879 [long] => -0.126236006618 ) [3] => Array ( [id] => 5 [lat] => 40.8824996948 [long] => -74.381942749 ) [4] => Array ( [id] => 3 [lat] => 51.5001525879 [long] => -0.126236006618 ) )

Formatted example,

#

# ITERATION 1

#

Array (

[0] => Array (

[id] => 2

[lat] => 40.8824996948

[long] => -74.381942749

)

)

#

# ITERATION 2 (which includes iteration 1)

#

Array (

[0] => Array (

[id] => 2

[lat] => 40.8824996948

[long] => -74.381942749

)

[1] => Array (

[id] => 6

[lat] => 40.8824996948

[long] => -74.381942749

)

)

#

# QUESTION

#

Are you printing the contents of the array while within the while loop?

forgive me for not formatting it but this is wat i get

I want to share with you an amazing trick I've learned for printing out the array:

Add this:

print('<pre>')

print_r($put_the_variable_name_you_want_to_display);

print('</pre>')

my whole script is above i've just started the project basicly i will have about 100 entrys in the array like this

Array (

[0] => Array (

[id] => 2

[lat] => 40.8824996948

[long] => -74.381942749

)

[1] => Array (

[id] => 6

[lat] => 40.8824996948

[long] => -74.381942749

)

[2] => Array (

[id] => 4

[lat] => 51.5001525879

Ok! But the code appears to be doing this outside of the fact with each iteration it is including results from the previous, which is what would happen if you are dumping the contents of the array WHILE within the `while` loop.

sorry my bad i had the

echo '<pre>';

echo print_r($fab);

echo '</pre>';

in the while {}

SORRY :s
