Question

It’s simple with static data

 $items = array( "Great Bittern"=>"Botaurus stellaris",
 "Heuglin's Gull"=>"Larus heuglini" );

Now i want to do this with dynamic data from a database

 $items = array();

 do{
     $items[] = $row_Recordset1['ID'] => $row_Recordset1['ARTIST'];

 } while ($row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1));

It worked with just one $row_recordset but when I put the => and second recordset it gives me an error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_DOUBLE_ARROW

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

It should be like below:

$items = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($resource)) {
  $items[$row['ID']] = $row['ARTIST'];
}
