Mike, Yes, you can create and access an array within a class. I've written seveal classes using arrays and it works just fine:
class Produce { var $Fruit = array(); function Produce() { // Access class variable $this->Fruit[] = "Oranges"; $this->Fruit[] = "Grapes"; } function More() { // Create and access local array $Vegies = array(); $Vegies[] = "Broccoli"; $Vegies[] = "Onions"; } } Michael Sims wrote: > > At 03:04 PM 1/5/2002 -0800, Chris Hall wrote: > >Just a quicky -- > > > >I have yet to see anyone define an array within a class, yet if it is > >possible, would i be able to access that array with > >$this->array["variable"];? > > I've designed a class that has a method that RETURNS an array, but it > sounds like you want to define one of the properties of your class as an > array, i.e.: > > class testObject { > > var $testarray = array("firstindex" => "firstvalue", > "secondindex" => "secondvalue"); > > ... > > } > > I haven't personally done this, but I can't see why it wouldn't be > possible.
