PHP array_push with string key

greetings glynco, , sorry, but I do not understand what you need to end up with in your $articles  array ? ?

you show your -
$articles['Article']
as being set to an array with One string in it, and in your "assign the string key" question you have it with - $tempObject  you do Not say, but from the name it is an Object, not a string. What is it you need to do, How do we know how to make - $tempObject - a string, if we do not know what Object it is? Or what you may need in the -
$articles['myClass'] array sub array  ??

Maybe something like this?

$object_name = get_class($object);
$articles[$object_name] = $object;

I do not know where array_push() fits into the equation ;-)

here is the Article.php class

class Article {
	public $title;
	public $author;
	public $pubdate;
	public $description;
	public $url;
	
	public function __construct($title, $author, $pubdate, $description, $url)  
    {  
        $this->title = $title;
	    $this->author = $author;
	    $this->pubdate = $pubdate;
	    $this->description = $description;
	    $this->url = $url;
    } 


}
?>

Select allOpen in new window

I need a key string to search for the article object.

Something like "Jungle Book" as the key string to search for, and the object is class Book.php which has titles, author name, etc.

return array(  
            "Jungle Book" => new Book("Jungle Book", "R. Kipling", "A classic book."),  
            "Moonwalker" => new Book("Moonwalker", "J. Walker", ""),  
            "PHP for Dummies" => new Book("PHP for Dummies", "Some Smart Guy", "")  
        );

Thanks. I just added the class and it works.


foreach ($articles['Article'] as $my_object)
{
    $title = (string)$my_object->title;
    $my_associative_array[$title] = $my_object;
}

Thanks...
