here's a code to create any array:

[PHP]

//first create the array:
$myArr = array();

//to add a value to the array (push on top/end)
array_push($myA rr,"value_here" );

// to traverse your array, you can use a for loop
for($i = 0; isset($myArr[$i]); $i++)
{
echo "index $i contains " . $myArr[$i] . "<br />";
}



[/PHP]

With PHP you can mix the any type of variable in the array: you can have an array that contains text, integers , or any number, or boolean value.

Also you do not need to worry about the array size. that is automatically handled.

for more info, refer to:http://php.net/array


Good luck,

You shouldn't call array_push to add a single variable to an array.
It is a lot faster to do it like so:

$array[] = $someVar;
 

array_push should only be used when you need to add multiple elements to an array.

array_push($array, $var1, $var2, $varN);

Shouldn't that 'PLZ HELP..!!!' be removed?

Good point. It should, and it has been.

siddharthkumarr ,

Please avoid putting phrazes like "plz help" in your thread titles. It makes it harder for the other members to spot problems they may be able to help with and it actually makes people less likely to read your thread.
