Question

I have the following.

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
    $item = "itemCount_".$row['id'];
    if ($_POST[$item] > 0)
    {
        $items2 = array( $i=> array($row['item'],$row['price']));
        $i++;
        echo $item." = ".$_POST[$item]." ".$i."<br>";
    }
}

I would have thought that this would put each item in a array but it only puts the last item in the loop in. where is my fundamental flaw?

Answer 1

$items2 = array( $i=> array($row['item'],$row['price']));

That just keeps reassigning $items2 to a new array. Don’t even worry about the $i counter and use

$items2[] = array($row['item'], $row['price']);
