how to loop through associative array and echo out to list?

Question

I have managed to get my first array working but no matter how many code examples I try I cannot step through each array row and echo the three columns / elements out to a

.

The var_dump of my array is:-

array(27) { [3]=> array(3) { ["id"]=> string(3) "295" ["title"]=> string(24) "ask.sqlservercentral.com" ["questions"]=> int(57) } [4]=> array(3) { ["id"]=> string(3) "287" ["title"]=> string(36) "LensFail.com - Photography Questions" ["questions"]=> int(42) } [2]=> array(3) { ["id"]=> string(3) "437" ["title"]=> string(12) "VideoWTF.com" ["questions"]=> int(37) } [13]=> array(3) { ["id"]=> string(2) "92" ["title"]=> string(8) "Moms4Mom" ["questions"]=> int(36) } [9]=>

I have tried using this but I did not get the expected results:-

foreach($results as $key=>$value) { echo $key.": ".$value; }

Can someone please help with a code example that loops through the array and echos ID, Title, Questions to a

Thanks in advance of your help.

Try:

foreach($results as $k => $v) { echo '<li>' . $v['id'] . '</li>'; echo '<li>' . $v['title'] . '</li>'; echo '<li>' . $v['questions'] . '</li>'; }

Or am I missing something?

The reason you are having problems is because this is a 2D array. You have to iterate twice. try something like this.

foreach($results as $result) { foreach($result as $key=>$value) { echo $key.": ".$value; } }
