I have an array of arrays:
Array ( [0] => Array ( [Name] => news/edit )
[1] => Array ( [Name] => news/show ) )
I have the following two variables:
$module = 'news';
$action = 'show';
I want to see if my array contains news/show or $module/$action
I can use explode here, but I can only explode one array.
You can use array_search:
$array = array(array("Name" => "news/edit" ), array("Name" => "news/show"));
$module = 'news';
$action = 'show';
var_dump(array_search(array("Name" => "$module/$action"), $array));
// int(1)
Why don't you just concatenate the strings before checking? Like this:
function doesArrayContainModuleAction($array, $module, $action) {
foreach($array as $subarray) {
if($subarray['Name'] == "$module/$action") return true;
}
return false;
}
Are you searching for this?
$new_array=array_map(function($x){
$y= explode('/',$x['Name']);
return array('module'=>$y[0],'show'=>$y[1]);
},$array);
