foreach binding vars problem

I have the following array content:

  Array ( [achternaam] => Jansen [roepnaam] => Theo ) 

Now i want to use this code

 foreach ($values as $r) {
    $achternaam = $r['achternaam'];
    $roepnaam = $r['roepnaam'];      
 }

When want to echo the $achternaam and $voornaam the values are empty. Does anyone know how to bind this variables to eachother.

The result should be $achternaam = Jansen and $roepnaam = Theo.

Tnx for helping!

$values = array(
    'achternaam' => 'Jansen',
    'roepnaam' => 'Theo'
);

The elements of $values are strings, not arrays. To access the achternaam and roepnaam values, you need to remove the foreach:

$achternaam = $values['achternaam'];
$roepnaam = $values['roepnaam'];

If the positions of the achternaam and roepnaam keys do not change, you may use list as well:

list($achternaam, $roepnaam) = $values;

This is only possible if the keys are in the order achternaam, roepnaam. I.e. $values['achternaam'] needs to assigned before $values['roepnaam'].

this should work:

$values = array('achternaam' => 'Jansen', 'roepnaam' => 'Theo');
list($achternaam, $roepnaam) = $values;

try it though...

Use a nested array if you want to have more than one person:

<?php
$values = array(
  array(
    'achternaam' => 'Jansen',
    'voornaam' => 'Theo',
    'club' => 'Ajax'
  )
);

foreach ($values as $r) {
  $achternaam = $r['achternaam'];
  $roepnaam = $r['roepnaam'];      
  echo $roepnaam . ' ' . $achternaam;      
}

If you want to keep using that array though, you can do it without foreach:

<?php
$values = array(
  'achternaam' => 'Jansen',
  'voornaam' => 'Theo',
  'club' => 'Ajax'
);

$achternaam = $values['achternaam'];
$roepnaam = $values['roepnaam'];      
echo $roepnaam . ' ' . $achternaam;

It looks like you're misunderstanding how foreach works. For each iteration of the loop, your variable $r has a string value - "Jansen" the first time and "Theo" the second.

The result you're trying to achieve can be done like this:

foreach($values as $k => $r) {
    $$k = $r;
}

Be careful where your array keys are coming from though - as this code could overwrite other sensitive variables in your script.

How about one simple line of code: extract($values)
