Re: [chiPHPug-discuss] A PHP Array question

[Jason R. <ja...@ho...>]

off the top of my head, I dont know of any other way than traversing the
array..  something like:

$aln=count($arToday);
$rec=0;
$found=0;
$title='';
$currenttime=[however you want to construct this];

while($rec<$aln){
 if( $arToday[$rec]['starttime']==$currenttime ){
  $found=$rec;
  $title=$arToday[$rec]['title'];
  $rec=$aln; // skip rest of loop
 }
 $rec++;
}

that was just typed without testing, so beware typos ;-)..

there _may be_ some better multi-dimensional array index function built
in to PHP but it would, in essence do the same as above..
