I would like some assistance in methodology to reassign/reset array keys to
consecutive numbering, while keeping in sync a second array that uses the
key of the first as it's key set.
If I have read a solution on php.net, I didn't understand what I was
reading.
At this stage of bumbling around, I am getting rather confused/frustrated.
...and getting mind around multidimensiona l arrays hurts :)
*** note php4 only available ***
$links is used to generate main page links.
$gallery is used to generate links on the $links page that has the same key
value.
The output below was produced using my config generator form, which enables
adding/deletion of links and associated galleries, which accounts for the
gaps in the $links key.
///// LINK LIST (TOP OF PAGE LINKS) /////
$links[0]=array('home'=> 'Home');
$links[1]=array('service '=>'Services');
$links[3]=array('people' =>'Portraits') ;
$links[5]=array('fundrai se'=>'Fundraise ');
$links[6]=array('events' =>'Events');
$links[7]=array('contact '=>'Contact');
///// GALLERY LIST /////
$gallery[0]=array('service '=>'Service','r eception'=>'Rec eption');
$gallery[3]=array('family' =>'Family','chi ldren'=>'Childr en','adults'=>' Adult
s');
$gallery[5]=array('cards'= >'Cards','leafl ets'=>'Leaflets '); 8 1871

ok, this is what I eventually came up with... is there a smoother way?
$indexer=0;
foreach (array_keys($li nks) as $linkKey){
$collecter[$indexer]=$linkKey;
$indexer++;
}
foreach (array_keys($co llecter) as $linkKey){
if ($links[$collecter[$linkKey]]){
$linksHolder[$linkKey]=$links[$collecter[$linkKey]];}
if ($gallery[$collecter[$linkKey]]){
$galleryHolder[$linkKey]=$gallery[$collecter[$linkKey]];}
}
$links=$linksHo lder;$gallery=$ galleryHolder;
First off, why is consecutive numbering important? It may or may not
be, depending on what you're trying to accomplish.
Why not just combine the two arrays into one to make life easier? For
instance, you might have something like:
$myArray[0]['links'] = array('home'=>' Home');
$myArray[1]['links'] = array('service' =>'Services');
$myArray[3]['links'] = array('people'= >'Portraits') ;
$myArray[5]['links'] = array('fundrais e'=>'Fundraise' );
$myArray[6]['links'] = array('events'= >'Events');
$myArray[7]['links'] = array('contact' =>'Contact');
///// GALLERY LIST /////
$myArray[0]['gallery'] =
array('service' =>'Service','re ception'=>'Rece ption');
$myArray[3]['gallery'] =
array('family'= >'Family','chil dren'=>'Childre n','adults'=>'A dult
s');
$myArray[5]['gallery'] =
array('cards'=> 'Cards','leafle ts'=>'Leaflets' );
Then you can re-index the whole thing in a continuous way without
losing your link/gallery association:
$myArray = array_merge($my Array); //just re-indexes the array First off, why is consecutive numbering important? It may or may not be, depending on what you're trying to accomplish.
Ultimately I want to be able to set the order in which the links appear on
the page. I figure taht it would be easier if they are in the array in the
correct order. I can then display the keys as the position, then reassign
keys on form return(submit).

Why not indeed ;) Thx for that. Will have a go at it later.
Q:-
To determine if a gallery then exists, I assume I would just have to do
something like:-
if ($myArray[0]['gallery']){ do gallery stuff }
???
Sure, or to be very thorough, you could do:
if(is_array($my Array[0]['gallery'])) { //do gallery stuff }
Just create a new array using array_value(). The original array should
be left alone. Modifying configuration data in the middle of a program
is usually a bad idea.

Understood.
What I have set up though, is a config tool that will edit the configuration
file which is separated from the site. When editing is complete, requires a
form submit to transfer to the local site directory where the page can read
it. Then it needs to be uploaded to the live site via ftp.
Odd perhaps, but this whole project is aimed (from my point of view) to the
maintaining an accurate or advanced offline backup of the live site, by
someone who is not web savvy.

hmmm... gallery keys to stay synced with links keys?
something like this?
$n=0;
foreach ( $links as $key => $val ){
$links[$key]=NULL;
$links[$n]=$val;
$val=gallery[key];
$gallery[$key]=NULL;
$gallery$[$n]=$val;
$n++;
};

Hi everybody,
To me the following code shouldn't work but it does !
Imports system.String

TextBox1.text=y(3)
why "Y" which is an array of lenght 2 accepts index 3 which is larger than
its lenght?
Any thoughts?
