29,881 PointsWhat you want to do is create a multidimensional array containing associative arrays. Each associative array is an individual contact.
<?php
//edit this array
$contacts = array(
array(
"name"=>'Alena Holligan',
"email"=>'alena.holligan@teamtreehouse.com'
),
array(
"name"=>'Dave McFarland',
"email"=>'dave.mcfarland@teamtreehouse.com'
),
array(
"name"=>'Treasure Porth',
"email"=>'treasure.porth@teamtreehouse.com'
),
array(
"name"=>'Andrew Chalkley',
"email"=>'andrew.chalkley@teamtreehouse.com'
)
);
echo "<ul>\n";
//$contacts[0] will return 'Alena Holligan' in our simple array of names.
echo "<li>".$contacts[0]["name"]." : ".$contacts[0]["email"]."</li>\n";
echo "<li>".$contacts[1]["name"]." : ".$contacts[1]["email"]."</li>\n";
echo "<li>".$contacts[2]["name"]." : ".$contacts[2]["email"]."</li>\n";
echo "<li>".$contacts[3]["name"]." : ".$contacts[3]["email"]."</li>\n";
echo "</ul>\n";
?>
