Question

I have a $search_array like this

Array
(
    [1] => Array
        (
            [type] => book
            [search] => steve
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [type] => book
            [search] => john
        )


foreach ($search_array as $s) {

    $arrayid = //???????
    $searchtype = $s['type'];
    $search = urlencode($s['search']);

getResult($arrayid);

}

I’m trying to figure out how to get the array number. So for the first result i need $arrayid to be 1. How do I reference that in the foreach loop?

Thanks

Use a foreach with “$key => $value”

Array
(
    [1] => Array
        (
            [type] => book
            [search] => steve
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [type] => book
            [search] => john
        )

foreach ($search_array as $key => $s) {

    $arrayid = $key
    $searchtype = $s['type'];
    $search = urlencode($s['search']);

getResult($arrayid);

}
