Can anybody help me out, I’m stuck, don’t know how to write a php nested for loop to convert into a key value array.<\/p>\n

This is the array structure.<\/p>\n

Needed to turn into key value array( combining JobDescription and userdetail array together)<\/p>\n

array(2) {\n    [\"jobDescription\"]=> array(5) {\n        [\"funeralFor\"]=> string(6) \"Myself\"\n        [\"serviceType\"]=> string(1) \"1\"\n        [\"religionType\"]=> string(1) \"2\"\n        [\"area\"]=> string(4) \"2154\"\n        [\"customerComment\"]=> string(6) \"fdfddf\"\n    }\n    [\"userDetail\"]=> array(6) {\n        [\"contactEmail\"]=> string(16) \"fdddf@fffgfg.com\"\n        [\"contactFirstName\"]=> string(6) \"fddfdf\"\n        [\"contactLastName\"]=> string(6) \"fddffd\"\n        [\"contactPhoneNumber\"]=> string(10) \"0420988191\"\n        [\"signup\"]=> array(2) {\n            [\"id\"]=> string(32) \"8048f0f7106c336e1a8825d1d3bec902\"\n            [\"input\"]=> string(3) \"k5m\"\n        }\n        [\"agreement\"]=> string(1) \"1\"\n    }\n} \n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Thanks so much in advance<\/p>\n

  1. \n
    You have two arrays stored in an array. You want the values of both arrays under one array instead of two subarrays?<\/p>\n
    $newArray = array_merge($array['jobDescription'], $array['userDetail']);\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \n
    I think you’re looking for array_merge<\/code>, which merges two arrays together:<\/p>\n
    $new_arr = array_merge($arr['jobDescription'], $arr['userDetail']);\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/li>\n
  3. \n
    array_merge($bigArray['jobDescription'], $bigArray['userDetail']);\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/li>\n
  4. \n
    You only need to loop once. No need for nesting. This solution covers where you have an undefined number of arrays to combine. Otherwise, you can use array_merge<\/code> as suggested by Dickie<\/p>\n
    $allValues = array();\n\nif(count($mainArray) > 0)\n{\n    foreach($mainArray as $arr)\n    {\n        $allValues += $arr;\n    }\n}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/li>\n
  5. \n
    The array_merge()<\/code> function can create an array from multiple arrays. In your example, it works this way:<\/p>\n
    $yours = array(...);\n$values = array_merge($yours[\"jobDescription\"], $yours[\"userDetail\"]);\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
