PHP Pull data out of an array [duplicate]

Question

I know this should be a relatively simple thing but I have not been able to do it yet. I have look hi and low and every example I try it fails I am sure it is fairly simple

Here is my array. I need to get the value of name last and filenames Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks!!

Array ( [formData] => Array ( [name] => TEST [last] => TEST1 [filenames] => Array ( [0] => /ocdata/uploads/export-1511887767.csv ) ) )

Working with arrays is php basics. Read a manual please, everything is described there. — u_mulder

Are you looking for $formData['name'] and $formData['filenames'][0]? — Karsten Koop

You looked high and low and couldn't find out how to access an array index? — MCMXCII

Really simple method to see your content:

foreach($array as $k => $v) { echo $k . $v . PHP_EOL; // see content of your array }

Or use directly the values:

$array['formData']['name']; $array['formData']['last']; $array['formData']['filenames'];

Doesn't really answer the question and Notice: Array to string conversion

While this may answer the question in a way, the answer could be majorly improved by showing OP the proper way to do it, vs "just a way". If it generates a notice or an error, it's not the right way. Teach a man to fish and all that....

Thanks everyone your answer were correct sorry it was a completely different issue that was haunting me. It had nothing to do with the array once I figured it out (i cannot even remember what it was) everything worked fine.
