PHP- Multidimensional-Array does not loop through array

Question

I am at the internship and I am developing a HTML table that has milestones and milestoneparts(in this project we call it milestonefase). Each milestone has a bunch of milestonefases.

As example: Milestone99 has milestonefase 10, milestonefase14.

Those data come from two diffrent database tables. My array looks like this:

Array
(
    [milestonesfases] => Array
        (
            [10] => Array
                (
                    [milestonefase_id] => int
                    [milestonefase_titel] => string
                    [milestonefase_milestone_id] => int
                )   
            [14] => Array
                (
                    [milestonefase_id] => int
                    [milestonefase_titel] => string
                    [milestonefase_milestone_id] => int
                )
        )

    [milestone_id] => int
    [milestone_titel] => string
    [client] => string
    [milestone_verkocht_id] => int
)

My question is: How can I loop trough all milestonefases that is connected with milestone 6 (in this case)

My loop looks like this:

foreach ($stones as $milestone)
{
   echo '<tr id="'. $milestone['milestone_id'] . '" class="milestone'. $milestone['milestone_id'] . '">';
     echo '<td>'. $milestone['milestone_id'] . '</td>';
     echo '<td><a href="javascript:keuzeGebruiker(\'milestone'.$milestone['milestone_id']. '\',\''.$milestone['milestone_id'].'\');">' . $milestone['milestone_titel'] . '</a></td>';
     echo '<td>'. $milestone['client'] . '</td>';
   echo '</tr>';

    for ($i = 0; $i < count($milestone['milestonesfases']); $i++)
    {
        echo '<tr>';
         echo '<td>'. $milestone['milestonesfases']['milestonefase_id'] . '</td>';
         echo '<td>'. $milestone['milestonesfases'][10]['milestonefase_titel']  . '</td>';
         echo '<td></td>';
       echo '</tr>';
    }
}

That '10' in my loop needs to be all milestonefase_id's (which is 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 in this milestone).

How can I manage to get all milestonefases.

Attention! it must work for every milestones not only this please

That piece of milestones works but milestonefases does not work.

This is Check for if is array and you can use it using same foreach like @Aron Said:

foreach ($stones as $milestone)
{
   echo '<tr id="'. $milestone['milestone_id'] . '" class="milestone'. $milestone['milestone_id'] . '">';
     echo '<td>'. $milestone['milestone_id'] . '</td>';
     echo '<td><a href="javascript:keuzeGebruiker(\'milestone'.$milestone['milestone_id']. '\',\''.$milestone['milestone_id'].'\');">' . $milestone['milestone_titel'] . '</a></td>';
     echo '<td>'. $milestone['client'] . '</td>';
   echo '</tr>';
if(is_array($milestone['milestonesfases'])){
  foreach ($milestone['milestonesfases'] as $key => $value) {
        echo '<tr>';
       echo '<td>'. $value['milestonefase_id'] . '</td>';
       echo '<td>'. $value['milestonefase_titel']  . '</td>';
       echo '<td></td>';
       echo '</tr>';
    }
  } 
}

Instead of using a for loop,

for ($i = 0; $i < count($milestone['milestonesfases']); $i++)

Do a foreach loop

foreach ($milestone['milestonesfases'] as $milestonesfase) 
{
    echo '<tr>';
    echo '<td>'. $milestonesfase['milestonefase_id'] . '</td>';
    echo '<td>'. $milestonesfase['milestonefase_titel']  . '</td>';
    echo '<td></td>';
    echo '</tr>';
}

please try

foreach ($stones as $milestone)
{
 echo '<tr id="'. $milestone['milestone_id'] . '" class="milestone'. $milestone['milestone_id'] . '">';
 echo '<td>'. $milestone['milestone_id'] . '</td>';
 echo '<td><a href="javascript:keuzeGebruiker(\'milestone'.$milestone['milestone_id']. '\',\''.$milestone['milestone_id'].'\');">' . $milestone['milestone_titel'] . '</a></td>';
 echo '<td>'. $milestone['client'] . '</td>';
 echo '</tr>';

 foreach($milestone['milestonesfases'] as $milestoneRow)
 {
    if($milestoneRow['milestonefase_milestone_id'] == $milestone['milestone_id']) {
         echo '<tr>';
         echo '<td>'. $milestoneRow['milestonefase_id'] . '</td>';
         echo '<td>'. $milestoneRow['milestonefase_titel']  . '</td>';
         echo '<td></td>';
         echo '</tr>';
    }
 }
}

No, this will not work, because the iteration is wrong. You cannot (safely) iterate over an associative array with for ($i = 0; $i < $max; ++$i). What you are doing is iterating over the keys 0..$max but in an assoc array the keys can be anything. If you want to takes this route, you need to iterate over array_values($milestone['milestonefases']). And please, don't put a function call inside the comparision in a for loop. It can trigger really expensive performance issues if the dataset grows larger over time. Instead, break out the count($milestone['milestonefases']) to a variable $max.

yes you are correct i havent noticed the key. we have to use foreach instead of for loop. Corrected my answer
