I have a session $_SESSION['match_viewer']['formation_place'][$row['player_id']]['player_left'] and when you do print_r($_SESSION['match_viewer']['formation_place'][$row['player_id']]['player_left']); it prints the array in an unuseable state. Is there any function i can use to allow me to get the session into a useable state?

This is the output of the array:

PHP Code:

Array (     [26] => Array         (             [player_top] => 49.2             [player_left] => 173         )      [32] => Array         (             [player_left] => 58         )      [29] => Array         (             [player_top] => 49.2             [player_left] => 115         )      [20] => Array         (             [player_top] => 147.5             [player_left] => 115         )      [22] => Array         (             [player_top] => 147.5             [player_left] => 230         )      [23] => Array         (             [player_top] => 196.7             [player_left] => 115         )      [24] => Array         (             [player_top] => 73.8             [player_left] => 230         )      [27] => Array         (             [player_top] => 98.3             [player_left] => 115         )      [28] => Array         (             [player_top] => 147.5             [player_left] => 173         )      [31] => Array         (             [player_top] => 98.3             [player_left] => 173         )      [18] => Array         (             [player_top] => 196.7             [player_left] => 173         )  ) 


Thanks for any help.

I dont know what u mean by useable state but instead of doing a print_r() which is for recursive print (to check all array things) do a simple echo or print like this
print $_SESSION['match_viewer']['formation_place'][$row['player_id']]['player_left'];
echo $_SESSION['match_viewer']['formation_place'][$row['player_id']]['player_left'];

And what is not usable about it?

you get this error message on the array because it has no commas in it!

PHP Code:

Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting ')' in /home/championshipfl/HNKY2LM4/htdocs/includes/match_viewer_content.php on line 34 


When u echo or print u get "Array"

What's on line 34?

posted first! when u prin using print_r your not able to tell it to still have commas so it forces an error when you try and do a foreach on it.

I want to be able to print the array out and save it in a database so i can obtain it at a later date.

Separate each array item with a comma, and store it as one big string (no need to use print_r anywhere, that is only a debugging tool). Then, when you extract it, use the explode function to make it back into an array.
