Question

I have the following array content:

  Array ( [achternaam] => Jansen [roepnaam] => Theo ) 

Now i want to use this code

 foreach ($values as $r) {
    $achternaam = $r['achternaam'];
    $roepnaam = $r['roepnaam'];      
 }

When want to echo the $achternaam and $voornaam the values are empty.
Does anyone know how to bind this variables to eachother.

The result should be $achternaam = Jansen and $roepnaam = Theo.

Tnx for helping!

Answer 1

$values = array(
    'achternaam' => 'Jansen',
    'roepnaam' => 'Theo'
);

The elements of $values are strings, not arrays. To access the achternaam and roepnaam values, you need to remove the foreach:

$achternaam = $values['achternaam'];
$roepnaam = $values['roepnaam'];

If the positions of the achternaam and roepnaam keys do not change, you may use list as well:

list($achternaam, $roepnaam) = $values;

This is only possible if the keys are in the order achternaam, roepnaam. I.e. $values['achternaam'] needs to assigned before $values['roepnaam'].
