Question

I’ve been working on a keyword detection portion of my app and it all seems to be working great except for $msg I can only get it to read one result which is the very first message.

I’m trying to get it to read through the entire array.

If I do a var_dump the results are there, I’m just not sure how to read through the array.

try {
        $me = $facebook->api('/me');
        $fql    =   "SELECT message FROM status WHERE uid= me()";
        $param  =   array(
                          'method'    => 'fql.query',
                          'query'     => $fql,
                          'callback'  => ''
                          );
        $fqlResult   =   $facebook->api($param);}   
        } catch (FacebookApiException $e) {
        }
          foreach($fqlResult as $row){
                $abt = strtolower($row['about_me']);
                $qts = strtolower($row['quotes']);
                $msg = strtolower($row['message']);//This one is causing trouble!
                $cursewrds = $abt . $msg . $qts . $status;
                $keywords = array("test","curse","words);
                $regex ="/(". implode('|', $keywords) .")/";
                $total = (preg_match_all( $regex, $cursewrds, &$matches));

Heres what the array looks like when I do a fql query for $msg.

[
  {
    "message": "test 1"
  },
  {
    "message": "test 2"
  }, 
  {
    "message": "test 3"
  },
  {
    "message": "test 4"
  }
]

P.S. I’m not the best at php but if I’m here I’ve tried everything I can think of.

Not sure what you have going on there, but the problem seems to be your foreach loop is in the wrong place. Try:

foreach($fqlResult as $row){
     $abt = strtolower($row['about_me']);
     $qts = strtolower($row['quotes']);
     $msg = strtolower($row['message']);//This one is causing trouble!
     $cursewrds = $abt . $msg . $qts . $status;
     $keywords = array("test","curse","words);
     $regex ="/(". implode('|', $keywords) .")/";
     $total = (preg_match_all( $regex, $cursewrds, &$matches));

     $messages[] = $msg;    
}
