Find value of sibling key in php array

Question

I have an array in PHP, here is a snippet:

$locations = array(
    array(
        \"id\" => 202,
        \"name\" => \"GXP Club - Fable\"
    ),

    a         


        

Answer 1

Doing this with PHP's built-in array functions^* avoids a foreach loop:

202, "name"=>"GXP Club - Fable"], ["id"=>204, "name"=>"GXP Club - Gray"]];

$col = array_search(array_column($locations, "id"), $_GET["id"]);
echo $locations[$col]["name"];

Or, using a different method:

202, "name"=>"GXP Club - Fable"], ["id"=>204, "name"=>"GXP Club - Gray"]];

$result = array_filter($locations, function($v){ return $v["id"] == $_GET["id"]; });
echo array_shift($result)["name"];
