how to match some elements in associative array in php

Question

I have a following array

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [0] => 
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [0] => flatrate
            [1] =>  flatrate3
            [2] =>  freeshipping
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [0] => flatrate
            [1] =>  flatrate2
            [2] =>  flatrate3
            [3] =>  flatrate4
            [4] =>  freeshipping
        )

)

Now, i need to match some element in this like

if freeshipping in above array . it should echo yes else no.

Please suggest, how can i do this.

Use [array_search()](http://in2.php.net/array_search) – Vikas Arora May 29 '14 at 11:37 — Vikas Arora, May 29 '14 at 11:37

    if(in_array($string, $array[$i]) echo true;
}

It always goes in else condition. – Ranjeet singh May 29 '14 at 12:16

you can do simple code like that :

 foreach ($array as $key) {
                    foreach ($key as $value) {
                        if($value == "your condition")
                        {
                        echo 'yes';
                        }else{
                            echo 'no';
                        }
                    }   
                }

try it.

if you try to check if flatrate is exist you can do some thing like that : if($value == "flatrate") echo "yes"; it should work with you as previous array example – MYoussef May 29 '14 at 12:19

Create A function

function checkfreeShipping($arrData)
{
   foreach($arrData as $data){

      if(in_array('freeshipping',$data))
      return true;
   }


}

Call defined function to check Shipping -

if(checkfreeShipping($cartArr)){

  echo "free Shipping";
}
else{
  echo "Paid Shipping";
}

Not way check carefully. print array and check that `freeshipping` is coming or not. :) – Jitendra Yadav May 29 '14 at 12:25
