I have an array that looks something like this:
Array
(
[2] => http://www.marleenvanlook.be/admin.php
[4] => http://www.marleenvanlook.be/checklogin.php
[5] => http://www.marleenvanlook.be/checkupload.php
[6] => http://www.marleenvanlook.be/contact.php
)
What I want to do is store each value from this array to a variable (using PHP). So for example:
$something1 = "http://www.marleenvanlook.be/admin.php";
$something2 = "http://www.marleenvanlook.be/checklogin.php";
...
You can use extract():
$data = array(
'something1',
'something2',
'something3',
);
extract($data, EXTR_PREFIX_ALL, 'var');
echo $var0; //Output something1
More info on https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.extract.php
Well.. you could do something like this?
$myArray = array("http://www.marleenvanlook.be/admin.php","http://www.marleenvanlook.be/checklogin.php","etc");
$i = 0;
foreach($myArray as $value){
${'something'.$i} = $value;
$i++;
}
echo $something0; //http://www.marleenvanlook.be/admin.php
This would dynamically create variables with names like $something0, $something1, etc holding a value of the array assigned in the foreach.
If you want the keys to be involved you can also do this:
$myArray = array(1 => "http://www.marleenvanlook.be/admin.php","http://www.marleenvanlook.be/checklogin.php","etc");
foreach($myArray as $key => $value){
${'something'.$key} = $value;
}
echo $something1; //http://www.marleenvanlook.be/admin.php
PHP has something called variable variables which lets you name a variable with the value of another variable.
$something = array(
'http://www.marleenvanlook.be/admin.php',
'http://www.marleenvanlook.be/checklogin.php',
'http://www.marleenvanlook.be/checkupload.php',
'http://www.marleenvanlook.be/contact.php',
);
foreach($something as $key => $value) {
$key = 'something' . $key;
$$key = $value;
// OR (condensed version)
// ${"something{$key}"} = $value;
}
echo $something2;
// http://www.marleenvanlook.be/checkupload.php
But the question is why would you want to do this? Arrays are meant to be accessed by keys, so you can just do:
echo $something[2];
// http://www.marleenvanlook.be/checkupload.php
What I would do is:
$something1 = $the_array[2];
$something2 = $the_array[4];
$arr[#]so, for instancesecho $arr[2];would outputhttp://www.marleenvanlook.be/admin.php. This is easier than setting up a variable for each not to mention SLIGHTLY more efficient as you won't be setting up more variables than needed.
