PHP get variable value from array

Question

If i print an array $cat i get

Array ( [1] => stdClass Object ( [cat_id] => 1 ..
Array ( [2] => stdClass Object ( [cat_id] => 2 ..

but if I try to get the cat_id

var_dump($cat->cat_id);

How can i do that?

You need an offset for your $cat array: var_dump($cat[0]->cat_id); — user254875486

$cat is an Array.

So,

var_dump($cat[1]->cat_id);

$cat is an array. You need to access the index which contains an object before you can access that object's properties:

var_dump($cat[1]->cat_id);

If you want to get all of the cat_ids...

foreach ($cat as $row) {
  echo $row->cat_id;
}

As $cat is an array, you need to use index

var_dump($cat[1]->cat_id);//This will work
