Iterating over a complex Associative Array in PHP

Question

Is there an easy way to iterate over an associative array of this structure in PHP:

The array $searches has a numbered index, with between 4 and 5 assoc

Answer 1

Consider this multi dimentional array, I hope this function will help.

$n = array('customer' => array('address' => 'Kenmore street',
                'phone' => '121223'),
      'consumer' => 'wellington consumer',
      'employee' => array('name' => array('fname' => 'finau', 'lname' => 'kaufusi'),
                     'age' => 32,
                 'nationality' => 'Tonga')
      );



iterator($n);

function iterator($arr){

    foreach($arr as $key => $val){

    if(is_array($val))iterator($val);

    echo '<p>key: '.$key.' | value: '.$val.'</p>';

    //filter the $key and $val here and do what you want
    }

}
