parse PHP array

Question

I have managed to get to the stage where I have an array that looks like this. Used (zend_json to decode a json response)

Array
(
[response] => Array
 (
 [status] => ok
 [userTier] => free
 [total] => 10
 [startIndex] => 1
 [pageSize] => 10
 [currentPage] => 1
 [pages] => 1
 [results] => Array
 (
 [0] => Array
 (
 [id] => lifeandstyle/series/cycling
 [type] => series
 [webTitle] => Cycling
 [webUrl] => http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/series/cycling
 [apiUrl] => http://content.guardianapis.com/lifeandstyle/series/cycling
 [sectionId] => lifeandstyle
 [sectionName] => Life and style
 )
 [1] => Array
 (
 [id] => sport/cycling
 [type] => keyword
 [webTitle] => Cycling
 [webUrl] => http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/cycling
 [apiUrl] => http://content.guardianapis.com/sport/cycling
 [sectionId] => sport
 [sectionName] => Sport
 )

How would I go about parsing only the elements that are [webTitle] and [webUrl]

Thanks!

You can't specifically parse only those parts, but you can iterate over the results and access them.

foreach ($val['response']['results'] as $result) {
 $title = $result['webTitle']; 
 $url = $result['webUrl'];
 // ...
}

• DIM3NSION: Thanks :) would my syntax be - require_once 'Zend/Json.php'; //load Json library $val = Zend_Json::decode($response_api); //decode he result into something thats parseable foreach ($array['response']['results'] as $val) { $title = $result['webTitle']; $url = $result['webUrl']; // ... }
• loganfsmyth: You didn't give the name of your variable in your post, so I used $array, but it should be $val
• DIM3NSION: perfect, one more question wouldnt i make it so the webUrl was a clickable link when echoed out
• loganfsmyth: Any logic you have for displaying this is up to you. Just output the values into HTML however you would do it normally.
