Question

I don’t like to use the foreach for every little array, I hear’d it is also possible to replace it with some array_ function, but I forget the function name.

This is what I wan’t to reach:

$down = array (
    "file.rar" => $l->get()->fileDesc(),
    "file1.rar" => $l->get()->clientDesc()
);

normally, I’m using this to display the data:

foreach ( $down as $key => $value )
     $data .= $key . ' = ' . $value . '<br/>';

So it’ll return:

//echo $data;
    file.rar = File Description One
    file1.rar = Client Description

It there a way to prevent from using the foreach and display the same $data anyway?

I’m just curious, so please be nice.

Why don’t you just write your own function?

function print_array($down) {
   $data = '';
   foreach ( $down as $key => $value )
      $data .= $key . ' = ' . $value . '<br/>';
   return $data;
}
