Hi All

I have an array in the below structure.
How do i use list to extract just the name

Array ( [data] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => Sebastian Penalosa [id] => 28100059 ) [1] => Array ( [name] => Oogie Sapu [id] => 72611865 ) [2] => Array ( [name] => Charlie Vance [id] => 199705644 ) [3] => Array ( [name] => Claire Phillips [id] => 508032563 ) [4] => Array ( [name] => Louise Davis [id] => 508711924 ) [5] => Array ( [name] => Carl Stephenson [id] => 512439546 ) [6] => Array ( [name] => Gav Smith [id] => 516476214 ) [7] => Array ( [name] => Prab S Chandhok [id] => 517365446 ) [8] => Array ( [name] => David Bishop [id] => 517641342 ) [9] => Array ( [name] => Mark 'Ginge' Jones [id] => 519908656 )

cheers

let's say you have

$main = array ( [data] => Array (
[0] => Array ( [name] => Sebastian Penalosa [id] => 28100059 )
[1] => Array ( [name] => Oogie Sapu [id] => 72611865 )
[2] => Array ( [name] => Charlie Vance [id] => 199705644 )
...
)
# not using list
$finalArray = array();
foreach($main['data'] as $_tempValues) {
$finalArray[] = $_tempValues['name']
}

Thanks very much.
Can it not be done with a list then?

No: list is just a construct to assign a list of variables. It "works" okay in the way you want it on a one dimensional array, not on other arrays.

nice one.
Thanks very much for you input.
