Question

I need to build a multidimensional array from records retrieved from my database.

Here is the code I have:

<?php
/*
 ...some code...
 */
foreach($data['colleges'] as $college)
{
  $college_temp[] =  $college->name; 
  $college_temp[] =  $college->abbrev;
  $college_temp[] =  $college->long_name;
  $college_temp[] =  $college->long_abbrev;
  $college_temp[] =  $college->url;
  $college_temp[] =  $college->description;
}

All the records from the database are going one after the other in the array. I need to optimize this using a multidimensional array.

Answer 1

$college_temp = array();
foreach($data['colleges'] as $college)
{
    $college_temp[] =  $college;
}

// Echo the first one's name
echo $college_temp[0]['name'];

// Echo the second one's url
echo $college_temp[1]['url'];
