How to check for a value in a string using a foreach loop

Question

This might be a simple solution, however I am not able to come up with it, therefore any help is welcome.

I have a shopping basket so customers can add different items for it (as normal) On some of these Items there are conditions and when added to the basket I'd like to show them up, however I have it setup so it checks for the value, but it only takes the value from the last added item.

Have the following

public function get_contents() {
$items = array();

        foreach($this->items as $tmpItem) {
            $item = null;
            $item['Condition']  = $this->Conditions[$tmpItem];
            $items[]          = $item;
        }
        return $items;
    }


    foreach($this->items as $item) {
        if(strstr($this->Conditions[$item], 'no') ==!false) {
            $this->Conditions = 'no';
            $item['Condition']      = $this->Conditions;
        } else  
            $this->Conditions = 'yes';
            $item['Condition']      = $this->Conditions;

What I would like to do is if any of these items contain the condition 'no'

  $this->Conditions = 'no';
  $item['Condition']      = $this->Conditions;

However it only takes the value of the last added item Any help welcome

and after the foreach what does $this->items prints ? does it contains "Condition" in each item or only the last one ? — Sunil Verma

then i think the problem in the definition of the item arrays, have you checked that $item in the loop in a simple array and not an object ? — Sunil Verma

You are over riding the array element

foreach($this->items as $item) {
       if(strstr($this->Conditions[$item], 'no') ==!false){
       $this->Conditions = 'no';
       $item[]      = $this->Conditions;
       }
       else{   
       $this->Conditions = 'yes';
       $item[]      = $this->Conditions;
       }
}

also if you need item with no tag you could try $item[$this->Conditions[$item]] = 'no'
