How to allow duplicate keys in php array [duplicate]

Answer 1

PHP doesn't allow for this. The best solution is to use a multidimensional array. For instance...

 "value1"),
                    array("key2" => "value2"),
                    array("key3" => "value3"),
                    array("key1" => "value4"));

?>

Notice how I have duplicate keys named key1 .

Now if I want to call each instace of key1, run

 $value) {

            if ($key == $desiredKeyName) {

                echo $value . "
";
            }
        }
    }

?>

and it will return

value1
value4
