Question

I know it is possible to split an array to be inserted to multiple columns/rows but I just stumped.

Say we have something like this….
Array
(
[john] => blue
[lee] => red
[sylva] => green
[paul] => black
)

In my table, I have three columns namely id,name,color. How can I insert these elements so that the rows in my table are incremented (based on this array, it should be 4 rows altogether)..
Thanks.

If you mean you want to insert the arrays into database tables, then:

foreach($yourArr as $name => $color) {
  //your insert query here
  $name = mysql_real_escape_string($name);
  $color = mysql_real_escape_string($color);
  $sql = "INSERT INTO TABLE_NAME VALUES ('$name', '$color')";
  $query = mysql_query($sql);
}

Do you mean something like this..
