Adding values to an associative array

[benj0323]

How exactly do you go about adding values to an associatve array.

I tried this and it didnt work:

for($i=0;$i<=10;$i++)
{
$array .= array("$i" => "some value");
}

Thanks for your help!

for ($i=0; $i<=10; $i++) { 
 $array[$i] = "some value"; 
}

Arrays [php.net]

Here are some more examples. print_r() [php.net] is a nice way to see how it works...

print '<pre>'; 
$array = array( 
 'zero', 
 'one', 
 'two' => 'deux', 
 'three' => 'trois' 
); 
print_r($array); // see what it looks like... 
$array['four'] = 'quatre'; 
print_r($array); // see what it looks like... 
$array[] = 'two'; // PHP remembers where you left off numerically  
print_r($array); // see what it looks like... 
print '</pre>';
