Question

I´ve got the following errormessage:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_DOUBLE_ARROW, expecting T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in /var/www/createRecipeIng.php on line 60

Don´t know how to handle that, never had before.

Here´s the code:

$ings =  array();
$ings = json_decode($incr_arr, true);
print_r($ings);
$reid = 5;

foreach ($ings['Data']['Recipes']['Recipe_' . $reid] as key => $shIng){
    echo $shIng['NAME'];
}

Line 60 is the line with the foreach loop. I know that the error must be there because the values of $ings are correct.

How can I manage this?

Answer 1

You need to define the element key just like any other variable.

You declared key when it should be $key.

Check the PHP manual for future reference.

Code fix

foreach ($ings['Data']['Recipes']['Recipe_' . $reid] as $key => $shIng){
    echo $shIng['NAME'];
}
