Combine multiple arrays using foreach loop

Question

I have following code:

foreach(array_combine($names, $hashids) as $name => $hashid) {
echo '<tr>
<td>'.$counter.'</td>
<td>'.$name.'</td>
<td>'.$hashid.'</a></td>
</tr>';
}

Now I want to combine one more array and iterate it's values in foreach. That's three arrays in a foreach statement. can anyone help me in adding it. Like how can we add multiple arrays in foreach statement.

For example I want something like:

foreach(array_combine($names, $hashids, $photoids) as $name => $hashid => $photoid) {
echo '<tr>
<td>'.$counter.'</td>
<td>'.$name.'</td>
<td>'.$hashid.'</td>
<td>'.$photoid.'</td>
</tr>';
}

But above code gives me error. The error I get is

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '=>' (T_DOUBLE_ARROW), expecting ')' in /homepages/4/d864452909/htdocs/public_html/app/index.php on line 58

share what this returns print_r(array_combine($names, $hashids, $photoids) ); — A l w a y s S u n n y

no you didn't I meant print the result of those three array combine before foreach loop AND share with us — A l w a y s S u n n y

@AlwaysSunny It doesn't return anything for three array values. But for two arrays combine it returns following Array ( [Sample] => JdpmLLdx5me7K [Big Buck Bunny 60fps 4K - Official Blender Foundation Short Film.mp4] => lWJQjwrVRZdXn ) — Andy

Exactly, what I wanted to point you that array_combine doesn't do combine of 3 array at once. so you need to share the full code with us so we can help you. :) see here: php.net/manual/en/function.array-combine.php — A l w a y s S u n n y

If I were you I will do this way with simple foreach() loop,

<?php
$names = ['Sample','Big Buck Bunny 60fps 4K - Official Blender Foundation Short Film.mp4'];
$hashid = ['JdpmLLdx5me7K','lWJQjwrVRZdXn'];
$photoids = ['url_1_of_the_image','url_2_of_the_image'];
$result = [];
foreach ($names as $key => $value) {
    $result[$key] = array(
        'name'  => $names[$key],
        'hashid' => $hashid[$key],
        'photoid'    => $photoids[$key],
    );
}
foreach($result as $k => $v) {
    echo '<tr>
         <td>'.$k.'</td>
         <td>'.$v['name'].'</td>
         <td>'.$v['hashid'].'</td>
         <td>'.$v['photoid'].'</td>
         </tr>';
}

You can merge the objects as below

$arr = array();

foreach ($names as $value) {
    array_push($arr, $value);
}

for($x = 0; $x < count($arr); $x++) {
  foreach($arr[$x] as $y => $val) {
    $arr[$x] = (object) array_merge((array) $arr[$x], (array) $hashids[$x]);
    $arr[$x] = (object) array_merge((array) $arr[$x], (array) $photoids[$x]);
  }
}

for($x = 0; $x < count($arr); $x++) {
echo '<tr>
<td>'.$arr[$x]->counter.'</td>
<td>'.$arr[$x]->name.'</td>
<td>'.$arr[$x]->hashid.'</td>
<td>'.$arr[$x]->photoid.'</td>
</tr>';
}
