Within grabQuotes(); if you do a var_dump($arg); (where $arg is $res[id]) is
your vehicle name displayed? If it is, and you're using it correctly, make
sure you're returning the value you'd like correctly. It might help to post
your grabQuotes function as well as the code that displays $cars[].

Hello all,

I have some array code driving me nuts.

I am pulling from a db:

select id, vehicle, has_quotes from cars where active=1

I then loop through these and build an array that contains the id's and
cars.

while($res){

$cars[$res[id]]=$res[vehicle];
//here is the problem, when has_quotes is 1, I call another function
to grab the quotes
if ($res[has_quotes]>1){
$cars[$res[id]]=grabQuotes($res[id]);
}

}

The grabQuotes function returns an array and works fine. THe problem
is when I go to display these, I cycle through the car array printing
id and vehicle name. I do a check so if vehicle name is an array, I
print out the quotes from the inner array, problem is I have lost the
vehicle name! How can I fix this?
